Expertise
I can answer questions on coming out, sexuality confusion and reactions from friends and family - I have been through all of this myself. Feelings, thoughts and does the "he/she like me" stages too. I may be younger than some of the experts but I am talking from 1st hand experience and I know what it is like. Having problems at school or don't know how to tell people? I can help with that too. Don't hestitate to ask me your questions, I am here to help.
Experience in the area
I am a bisexual teen who has come out to family and friends. I have been through the stages of "Am I gay or am I bi?", the reactions and opinions of students at school and also had trouble from people because of my sexuality. It is something I feel strongly about and want to help others, like AllExperts helped me.
Education/Credentials
I am still in full-time education and have taken my GCSE's. I have got 10 A-C at GCSE and am now at Sixth Form studying for my AS & A Levels in ICT, RE & Psychology.

2009-11-15 Has the meaning of "That's gay." changed?:
