I'm going to start off by saying I have no intention whatsoever of creating a flame war thread, so please just share your story and comment nicely on each other's posts if you wish.
So, how has your view changed? For me, greatly. Growing up with my dad, he's always told me gay is bad, gay is gross, etc, so I grew accustomed to those opinions and was against everything LGBT. He has told me several times, however, he is much more tolerable of lesbians over gays, as "girls are pretty, so I could understand them. But gay guys? Whaat?". For many years, up until I was 8, I had been that way. Then, I had my own source of internet browsing. Discovered some stuff, LGBT stuff, and my opinion slowly began to change. I eventually became bi, as I am now. With my dad, I still act the same way toward the LGBT community as I did when I was younger. Now, I'm just neutral. I don't support it, I'm not against it, just in the middle.
