This Is A Strange Problem

I recently joined my school's GSA, and the person I'm really scared to come out to is the lesbian girl in charge. I just have this weird fear that she's going to think I'm faking or that I don't act gay enough.

" She should be impeached if she's holding stereotypes. GSAs are about acceptance. Just be you and live! "

" You don't have to come out!
Ask yourself, why do people come out?

Hopefully your reason is because your are interested in people and want to be honest. That you don't want to carry on false relationships lying everywhere you go.

Do you need to tell someone you're gay just to join a GSA? Hell no! It is after all a Gay / Straight Alliance. Now. If you are really wanting to dip your heart into this girl, then tell. And don't care about what she thinks about you. YOU ARE WOMAN!

" As DrSeuss said, you don't have to come out to anyone if you don't want to. You can be gay, bisexual, or straight and be in a GSA (otherwise it wouldn't be a GSA, lol). And, if she really thinks that you're not gay because you don't "act gay enough", I wouldn't recommend getting to know the girl. "
