(Contains slight spoilers, but you may come back after chapter one for no spoilers. This is an optional read, it wont affect your knowledge of the story either)
I just want to put this warning prior to you reading my story. This is here so you know where I am coming from. Now this story is about a gay cisgendered white male, as I am a gay genderqueer white person. So I can relate to the character on a personal level as my sex is male.
To them being outed, I have had that happen before to me. Now I was not outed to my parents but I was outed to a most of friends, eight to be exact, and all of them rejected me and I fell into depression after that. However, I am out to one of my parents (I don't live with them but I don't see them fully on board with it. I see it as they think it influences what I do like painting my nails). My other parent would most likely be okay with it. Now my sibling scares me with supporting things like Hitler and the Confederacy, as also my grandma has defriended people over them having a same-sex lover.
In my family, I am an outspoken advocate for equality and most of them are on board with it but have their own biases they have also. I personally don't see any nasty discriminate biases that I withhold, not to say my characters won't show any but I personally think discrimination and I wouldn't stand for it in real life.
