[quote=Anonymous]I'm confused - do they know he's gay? I think I might try to weave a gentle path, not direct. And not because I'm avoiding it, but because for some people it is an evolution. They may not even think the things they've said are homophobic. They may have no idea. I think maybe when someone asks you could say something like you know, I'm not so sure he feels welcome (not in a large group, but one on one) and just leave it for them to pursue, or not. I might also consider talking to your cousins or people you think might be more sympathetic - and in this case more proactively bring it up. You might find more openness than you expect, or at least some ideas for how this could go over the next few years. Are your parents not there? [/quote]
