How a Gay Dad Comes out Today – and Every Day<\/b>
\n“Titanium metal!” my son exclaimed. “Like a fast robot police sports car!”<\/p>\n

“Pink!” my daughter excitedly squealed.<\/p>\n

“And what do you think?” I asked my husband, as we were shopping for our new car. “You need to like the color, too.”<\/p>\n

A salesperson in the showroom, overhearing our conversation, inquired, “Why does your brother need to like the color of the car you’re buying?”<\/p>\n

Since coming out over 20 years ago, I’ve realized that coming out is not a one and done thing.<\/p>\n

But now, as a gay<\/a> dad, with a husband and two kids, coming out happens pretty much on a weekly, if not, daily, basis.<\/p>\n

This September, my son started playing hockey, and I’m the assistant coach.<\/p>\n

During our coaches meeting, many of the coaches in the room mentioned that we hadn’t received an email, inviting use to fill out one of the forms we were reviewing.<\/p>\n

The reply?<\/p>\n

“Your wives probably filled it out, without you knowing!”<\/p>\n

I don’t intentionally come out every day. Or even purposely call<\/a> myself a gay<\/a> dad. No big announcements, no celebratory parties, no viral YouTube videos<\/a>… well, okay… maybe one<\/a>… or two<\/a>…<\/p>\n

Yet, the reality is, I am a proud gay<\/a> dad, whose family looks a bit different than the majority of families where we live<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, my husband I and were out walking with our kids, and new neighbors came up to introduce themselves.<\/p>\n

After a bit of small talk, they then asked, “So… what’s going on here… Full House<\/em>? — guys<\/a> raising kids together?”<\/p>\n

“Well, kind of, but in this case, we’re husbands,” we replied.<\/p>\n

Them: “Husbands?”<\/p>\n

Me: “Husbands.”<\/p>\n

Them: “Husbands?”<\/p>\n

Me: “Yes… husbands.”<\/p>\n

Them: “Oh… you’re a same-sex<\/a> couple<\/a>! Honey — we have a same-sex<\/a> couple<\/a> on our new street!”<\/p>\n

I know not every coming out moment is funny and not every coming out moment garners a positive reaction.<\/p>\n

I also know that barriers still exist for so many LGBTQ individuals, and that some people still feel that they have to hide this part of their identity.<\/p>\n

Personally, I’m inspired by those who have “come out” before me — who were visible on the first National Coming Out Day<\/a>, 27 years ago, when it wasn’t easy to be heard.<\/p>\n

Twenty years ago, the hardest words to ever come out of my mouth were, “I’m gay<\/a>” — and unfortunately, the reactions weren’t as positive or as humorous as the reactions I get now.<\/p>\n

For so many youth the reactions still aren’t favorable.<\/p>\n

In fact, it’s estimated that 25-40 percent of homeless youth identify as LGBTQ.<\/p>\n

It’s one of the reasons why I want to live<\/a> my life so transparent and so visible.<\/p>\n

I know that I don’t have to come out in those every day moments but I do feel a responsibility to be visible and to be out.<\/p>\n

I want to be a role model for those who aspire to be out, but don’t think they can.<\/p>\n

I want to change perception of what families look like, and inspire those who think that by coming out, they have to give up their dream of being a parent.<\/p>\n

I want to help LGBTQ youth so that they feel they can live<\/a> their authentic lives.<\/p>\n

One of the best notes I have ever received about one of my blog posts<\/a>, was from a mother, whose son was having a hard time coming out. He was afraid of being rejected and he thought that by coming out, he would have to give up his dream of being a dad. After reading my post, her son had the courage to come out and to live<\/a> his authentic life. This woman<\/a>’s letter was so heartfelt, and showed me how important it is to be visible — because you never know who is going to be helped by your story.<\/p>\n

I recognize how fortunate I am. I can be a dad to two incredible kids, a husband, a professional in business world, an assistant hockey coach, a blogger — and an out, gay<\/a> man<\/a>.<\/p>\n

No one bats an eye or treats me differently when they find out that, no, I actually don’t have a wife. That tall, handsome, man<\/a> I live<\/a> with, he’s my husband and papa to our kids — and I love him dearly.<\/p>\n

Oh… and the choice of color we selected for the car?<\/p>\n

While there was a part of me who really wanted to choose pink… driving a fast robot police sports car is cool, too. Plus, it looks pretty awesome parked in our driveway beside the even cooler mini-van. <\/p>\n
