Many remain against same-sex marriage and words like 'faggot', 'poof', etc are still widely spoken. Improving, but still a big issue in my opinion.

Any particular reason why you've not told your parents. As a parent myself is be pretty sad and disappointed if any of my children felt they could tell the world but not me. Would they not take it well?
I'm much more uncomfortable than your average person when it comes to discussing anything sexual with my parents. It's not their fault and I do genuinely feel bad about the fact that I'm not willing to tell them but it's also something I'm not obligated to do, and tbh I'm not sure they'd be that interested anyway. My dad just wouldn't understand - he's old-school and doesn't display his emotions or talk about things like this anyway, and my mum wouldn't really care, but it's just a step I've never felt the need to take, whereas I have often felt the need to come out to those around me, even if it doesn't play a big part in determining who I am.
Think it's a bit disrespectful to your parents that you would tell the world and the next stranger of your sexuality, but not your parents. It would be pretty crappy if they found out of someone else.

It's pretty crappy for you to tell someone else what to do regarding who they should come out to. Cool if you're a parent and all but it's not your business. You don't know me or my relationship with my parents.

This. Just because you don't experience the problem yourself or don't see it happening doesn't mean it isn't a huge problem - it is. Gay people are currently second-class citizens in this country by virtue of not being able to marry, and you not caring about the issue doesn't stop it being an issue.

I wasn't telling you what to do, I was just informing you how disrespectful it actually is and it's completely your choice what you do. However, you have not just decided to tell your friends, but actually the whole world by posting on here. I think your parents may be gutted to know that they was the very last people to find out and in actual fact strangers knew first. Yes, I can appreciate the fact I know nothing about your parents, but what I've gathered from this is that you should tell them, IMO.
I know lots of people who 'came out' to close friends before parents, but to complete strangers on the Internet before parents? Sighs.
I really do admire the fact you've posted on here about this, in fact I think it's great to see, but was very disappointed to see about the parents situation.

To be fair to Aaron, wazz, he's by no means the first person to make that point ITT.
Part of me thinks it's none of our business why you have chosen not to tell your parents but to announce it to the internet. But another part of me doesn't blame anyone ITT for asking you why.
It's obviously an emotive issue - not just the reasons for the revelation but the overall issue of sexuality - so it is pretty difficult to know how to approach 'asking you anything'.
Opening the door as widely as you have in posting on here does mean occasionally getting a question or a viewpoint you don't like. It is a valid one and not one unique to Aaron on this occasion, however inappropriate you consider it to be.

Nevertheless, I do wish sometimes, Aaron, you could choose your words in such a way that made your point a bit less...y'know...

I gotta say I'm pretty broad minded and I'm not easily shocked by this sort of stuff. However when my mate opened up about the sort of stuff he gets up to sometimes I was pretty aghast at the promiscuity within some the gay scene, and apps like scruff and grinder to hook up
I think most single straight blokes would give their right arm to find it that easy to hook up for a casual meet with a bird
