Is it stupid to come out as gay in facebook?

[Rachel]

I always support people being honest about who they are, and it would probably be a huge relief to get it out in the open. Of course there are going to be people at your school who are going to make a big deal out of it. You'll probably hear some name calling here and there. But if your friends are supportive of you and have your back, I don't see it being anything that you can't get through. In my opinion, coming out and telling people something that big about yourself makes you a strong person. So no doubt here that no matter how they react, you'll be just fine.
