Not everyone can or wants to walk away from their family and loved ones because of a difference of viewpoints regarding sexual orientation.
I come from a devoutly Catholic family, and I know the mindset... but that doesn't stop me from loving my family and wanting to be around them, while also loving myself and being proud of who I am.
But... it took a long time to come to that. It's one of those "previously irreconcilable" things that I mentioned to Brandon.
