Anyone using Brokeback as a means of coming out?

Front-Ranger:
This is a great topic and I would like to hear more people's perspectives on this!

Amazing bump Bud!  What a way to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the last post (prior to your bump) on this thread!

Well, since I just came across this thread I felt compelled to write!
This movie,as i have said, was like a mirror to me and I didn't like the reflection.
I see so much of my self in Ennis that it is scary. The self hatred the closeted exsistence etc.
Well, I can't do it anymore. Jack showed me that life is too short. They both showed me that hapiness is fleeting and soon you'll turn around and your chances for true happiness will be gone.
So, I'm taking my chances. It's going to be hard I have no illusions about that. I may not realize how hard yet but i will soon enough. I have come out to the people here to some extent and after I get my life in order as far as my marriage and my family, I will take the next step.
I will probably have my folks watch the movie and then go from there. I'm not quite sure how I will handle it and who I will tell. Like Jack said, it's nobody business. but ours. Ours being who I decide to tell. I do know that I am not going to let life pass me by anylonger whilst i stand in a closet looking out!
