    My mom definitely suspected it when I came out as bisexual. When I came out as trans it was kind of a shock but in hindsight she says she could have figured it out.

    I have only come out to my sisters. I told my younger sister first, but only because she had come out to me. So after she said she's lesbian, I said, "Me too." She hadn't expected that, but I was pretty good at covering it up.

    My older sister was different. She asked me if I was "anything like that" when we were talking about queers in general. When I finally told her I was lesbian, she said she always suspected I was either lesbian or asexual.

    Not surprised at all. My mom knew I was bi before I knew myself i like to say. She said she had been waiting for me to realize it but got tired of waiting and finally asked me about it and that's how I came out. And to be honest i am yet to come across a person who was surprised everyone just kind of assumed I was either bisexual or homosexual.

    My parents both said they expected it.

    Probably because I never showed any interest in guys, and got mad when people talked about me getting a boyfriend/husband someday.

    My mom heard some rumors about me and confronted me about it and I told her (I suspect I friend I came out to opened her big mouth you know isn't my friend anymore). Since then she hasn't mentioned it again, I think she is ignoring the topic, especially since I keep me being a lesbian to myself expect for a handful of friends, besides she no one else in my family knows.

    My mom definitely suspected it a bit lol. I never had a girlfriend (even if girls asked me out), and I guess it was just gut instinct lol.

    My parents think what they want to think, even if all the evidence in the world says otherwise.

    My parents are totally oblivious. I've legitimately said that I don't want to be in relationships with guys before, and I have a bunch of posters of my female celebrity crushes in my room, yet they keep mentioning me having a husband when they talk about my future.

    Yup, that's exactly why I came out to my parents. I was so sick of hearing, "Someday you'll have a husband and blah blah blah..."

    OMG, tell me about! I feel like the next time my mom tells me I need a boyfriend, I might just tell her in no uncertain terms and possibly with some graphic details how much not into penises I really am, thank you very much. It's twice as annoying because she seems to suspect I'm gay. Besides, even if I weren't, it'd still be extremely irritating.

    My mom suspected I was a lesbian, but since I definitely liked boys she never said anything until I came out to her. XD

    My Mom suspected it. I was really masculine-acting all my life and she went by stereotypes, haha

    I haven't come out but my Mum has suggested that I experiment with my sexuality and when we were watching kinky boots after the "ladies, gentleman and those who are yet to make up their minds" she turned to me and went "that's you"

    I think so. My mom wasn't surprised when I told her. I never showed the slightest interest in guys, which was probably suspicious.

    I haven't told my dad, but I think he probably suspects. I mean, I'm 24 and have never had a boyfriend.

    I can tell you, it won't stop until you plain out tell them. I am 35 and I have been hearing getting a boyfriend/husband and such talks since I turned 22 and the worst thing is all my mother's clients (she runs a beauty parlor) tells me I need to find a guy and give my mother grandkids. If my family wasn't so homophobic I would tell them a piece of my mind.
