I just wanted your opinions on my friend who is 29 and has been out to his friends for at least 8 years. He embraces his gay identity and surrounds himself with mainly gay friends yet inexplicably he is not out to his parents or younger siblings. Whenever I have tried to discuss the subject he becomes defensive and irritated. He claims that it is not an issue for him right now and that his family are not particularly close, yet he sees them at least every Christmas.
I suppose I'm looking for an explanation as to why someone can be comfortably gay with all his friends but remain 'frozen' and 'sexually anonymous' with his parents and younger siblings. God knows what they must think, as he is nearly 30 and has never discussed his sexuality with them. If they took one glance at his facebook profile, it would be pretty obvious of his gay identity. I just cannot rationalise it in my head that he can act so differently between friends and family when he is such a jovial and fun character?
