    I've just came out to my mom as bisexual!
    It went spontaneously. My mom knows that I used to have a crush (kinda still do) on a trans woman that I met before she came out. My mom used to think that I was still straight, just so desperate for this person that I didn't care about her gender. I said that I recently saw her in a skirt. She said that she wouldn't be interested in someone who wears skirts. I said that I don't really have a preference whether someone wears a skirt or pants. She asked me if this was a metaphor for gender. I said yes.

    She was very supportive. I thought she would ask a lot of questions but she didn't. She said she loves me, and that I've always been a non-traditional person so she knew that even if I was straight, I would not conform to societal expectations anyway.

    I'm so happy and so excited. I can't believe I actually did it. It feels great to finally be able to be fully honest with my mom and show her my most authentic self.
