Though most adolescents who come out do so in high school, sex researchers and counselors say that middle-school students are increasingly coming out to friends or family or to an adult in school. Just how they’re faring in a world that wasn’t expecting them — and that isn’t so sure a 12-year-old can know if he’s gay — is a complicated question that defies simple geographical explanations. Though gay kids in the South and in rural areas tend to have a harder time than those on the coasts, I met gay youth who were doing well in socially conservative areas like Tulsa and others in progressive cities who were afraid to come out . . . All of this fluidity, confusion and experimentation can be understandably disorienting for parents and educators." ]]> http://www.alliancealert.org/2009/09/23/ny-times-coming-out-in-middle-school/feed/ 0 http://www.alliancealert.org/2009/08/19/aclu-lgbt-community-groups-disappointed-by-court%e2%80%99s-denial-to-join-federal-prop-8-case/ http://www.alliancealert.org/2009/08/19/aclu-lgbt-community-groups-disappointed-by-court%e2%80%99s-denial-to-join-federal-prop-8-case/#comments Wed, 19 Aug 2009 20:47:49 +0000 ADF Alliance Alert http://www.alliancealert.org/?p=33659 ACLU: "Today Judge Vaughn R.
