Greetings y'all. Hope this doesn't come back to Bite me in the But , for saying all this, but Here goes. I'm haveing a REAL Problem adjusting to being Gay and Durid/Pagin. I started my Gay Druid Path back on Dec 21, 2007. IT was at Yule/Winter Solstice Ritual, where I asked Hekate to help me "accept" and admit to myself I AM GAY. Something I've Faught and "Tried " to deny my whole life. Thinking IF I got married adn had kids, THe "Feelings" would go away. HA!!The only Grew Stornger the more I treid to supress them.
But, since then (Dec. 21, 2007) I've slowly started coming out of the closet, VERY CAREFULY. I've not made a big deal about it nor have I told many people. I act and look str8. IF someone happens to ask, I'll tell them.

A yr went by while I tried to "FIT IN" w/ a grove and learn all I could. Got VERY FRUSTRATED b/c I just couldn seem to find a connection. THEN, I stumbled upon a local Wiccan group here in the Houston area, in which some members are Gay. I told The G.O.(who was gay) my situation and they took me in w/open arms, and just accepted me for me as a new Gay Druid Brother, struggeling.

F.F. 2 Aug.'08. Found a Local Druid Grove. It seemed 2B everything I was looking 4. After about 5 months I admitted to a couple Brothes I was Gay. Humm They seemed 2B ok w/it and led me to belive all was well. BUT I was the ONLY Gay member in the Grove,which made me a bit uneasy. There were a couple really "CUTE" guys, one claimed he was str8,but later admittd it was BI....when he was younger,(he in his late 20's or early 30's now) no but now he "CLAIMS" he's Str8. The 2nd guy "claims" he was a Metroselxual, is very comfortable being around gay men, has no problem being nude around other guys, yet claims he has NO sexual interst in a guy. HE's divorced and has a dtr. prob late teens.

Well I WAS STUPID ENOUGH to LET MY GUARD DOWN and "TRY" and be myself and just be gay around them. Something I"m still learning and really haven't got the hang of yet. Point is at Lúghnasadh, in which there was the G.O (who's the one who sd he was once BI but now has a G.F) the other guy who sd he's Metro & ME, I was accuesd of making a TOTAL ASS OUT of myself and "Exposeing myself to everyone. Humm well lest see I did have a KILT on and NO I don't wear anything underneath, and THAT was only the 2nd time in my entire life I'd worn one, so Maybe I was "EXPOSING myself and didn't ralize it. BUT B/C OF THAT I WAS REMOVED AND BAN FROM Being a member of this Grove and participating any other further activites.
At first it HURT Like HELL,b/c "I" thought I"d really Screwed UP. then I decided I really didn't care, because the Grove was growing and become Extremely HETRO and very "Anti Gay. SO in a sense the did me a favor. BUT NOW I'm w/o a Grove, I feel like here it's been almost 2 yrs and I'm basically no further along than I was when I took my first step in Dec. 0f '07. I'm a member of the ADF but am sooo TEMPTED to CANCLE my mebership, if THIS IS the way THEY treat their "GAY" Brothers. Now I feel Lost,w/o a Grove and REALLY wondering IF ther are ANY GAY Druids & Pagansnear me.

Thus brings me to my pint of all this. SOrry for runnin so long , but I just needed to some place "Safe" to vent my Frustration.
IFR y'all have read this far and are still w/me, and I've NOT TOTALLY PISSED EVERY ONE OFF and aliniated y'all for my comments, I'd like to me encourageing words. I feel like someone has kicked me in the gut, simple b/c I was STUIPID enough to think it ws SAFE to come out of the Closet. Well Guess WHAT, Im back in it and though the door is open not sure if it's SAFE to come back out. I could Sure use some Brothers here where I am, who are actully Druid/Pagan and GAY not "Pretend". Sorry Sisters, right now I need my Brothers. Esp since I way out here in the Cypress/NW Houston area.
Blessings and THANKS for letting me Vent. Sorry, I took up so much space. Blessed, BE, Stephen-Draicc Ceilearadhrry .

Greeting y'all from Cypress/N W Houston, TX.
Per chance if thery're any of my Gay Pagan/Druid Brothers down here, I"d like to hear from y'all. But it'd be nice to talk to any of y'all. Esp since, I've only been following the Gay Druid path since Dec. 21, 2007, after being both a Master Mason and a Methodist all my life. STILL GOT LOTS to learn.
Blessings y'all, Draicc Ceilearadh (Stephen)
