do you think it is only your own business?
say for ex. someone chooses to not come out to their family as gay/bi/lesbian cause they are religious could that be a good decision?
im sure being able to be open is better for everyone but not everyone can do that in all cases.

It doesn't matter, if it comes up tell the truth and if they have a problem, then tell them you have a problem with straight people. They won't treat you differently if they are good people.

I think it feels better to be open about it, to an extent. Just because your'e some shade of GLBT doesn't mean the entire world needs to know.

Why should you be afraid to let people know? There is a difference between shoving stuff down someones throat but lets face it the very basis of equality would require equal treatment, so just as you wouldn't hide that you are straight, you wouldn't hide that you are gay /lesbian/bi/trans.

Yes your sexuality is your own business.
However, if you are conflicted inside as to whether or not you should tell people, do to the feeling of being ashamed, you should probably tell someone to get it off your back, otherwise youll go crazy.
There are things I thought I would take to the grave with me that I've ended up telling people in my life, and years later looking back upon it, doesnt matter. Im glad I told them in retrospect, because it meant I was vulnerable, and had to deal with it. I feel like im a stronger person today, even if not directly related it, partially.

You shouldn't be afraid to come out, I am just saying that sometimes discretion is in order. (IE, if you live in an area that is more unwelcoming to gays) If you feel safe telling someone, then by all means, tell them!! And honestly, if you want to tell the world, go for it.
