That sounds terribly difficult, especially when I think of the already-ever-so-mixed-up-turmoil of a typical adolescence... :-/ Having had two dear friends who finally acknowledged their homosexuality, and "came out" to face great (and frankly near-fatal) difficulty in their family and social lives, I salute your survival and success. And to have found a supportive community is both blessing and necessity for the future. Debbi __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
