Parents Throw Daughter The Best Pride Party Ever After She Came Out To Them
coming out to your parents about your sexuality probably isn’t the easiest thing in the world, especially if you’re only 17 years old, and have a strong fear of rejection and homophobia. But for Kinsey Ratzman from New Jersey coming out of the closet about her sexual orientation turned out to be the most awesome experience ever. Why? Because her parents responded to the news by deciding to throw her a surprise “Pride Party!”
They told her that they were going to be having an early 4th July party, and then while she was at the mall with her cousin her sneaky parents got busy with the preparations. They covered the entire house with rainbow-themed decorations and they even made a bunch of rainbow-colored food. Her aunt even baked her a “vegan gay cake” because Kinsey is the only vegan in her family.
It’s been a pretty dark time for the gay community recently due to the devastating Pulse nightclub shootings in Florida, but Kinsey’s family could not have responded to their daughter’s sexuality in a more amazing way. If only everybody had parents like this!

Total acceptance of the human being who is their daughter. Awesome parents...
When my daughter came out I said, that's nice. I didn't and dont care. It's not an issue. Can you imagine celebrating someone's sexuality? No, I can't either. I long for the day when this doesn't have to be celebrated and no one cares. That's equality.
Good point. Let's hope that day comes. In the meantime, have a nice day Chritian!

I don't understand why its so important for express their sexuality in this day and age...who cares if you are gay or straight. I just don't see why people have to do this. as long as you are loved by your family and friends.....why do you have to make it so public about your sexuality.
Spoken like someone who's never had to hide their sexual identity because to openly express who they are would expose them to violence or rejection. Enjoy your privilege.

Awesome parents, courageous daughter. Maybe one day we will be civilized enough, kids won't have to "come out". They'll just be who they are.
Honestly I wouldn't want this attention if I were to come out. I would just want to be treated normally, because it shouldn't be a big deal!
She's one lucky 17 year old. That's unconditional love right there people.
Can you imagine what the world would be like if every parent loved and respected their children as much as these parents do?
I'm afraid of coming out to my family because They think it's weird, but I had to decide and I decided not to because I'm afraid of pplz op.
You can't help what you love. At first I didn't tell my parents, I thought it was weird.But then my teacher said you can't help who you love

Great parents and for her to be surprised like that. The cake looks delicious!
I wish my parents did that for me! These parents are real role models.
Why so many hate comments? Are you people so uneducated that you don't even know that you're born Gay???? It is in the womb of the mother that the sex is determined. Sometimes hormones get mixed up and that is why the baby becomes Gay. Look it up in a biological book on the subject. We no longer live in the 19th century.
Konstantin Nanov, how dare you made such a hateful comment? You must not be someone who has studied much or read anything on this subject. You are so filled with hate that I fell very sad for you. May God bless you and help see the way to a better way of treating your fellow humains.
Erik Wright, you are so wrong! Who are you to pass such a judgement. Animals are sometimes also Gay. So what if they don't have children, is it your business? So what if they don't stay their whole life with the same pattern, Don't straight people get divorced and get married over and over again; leaving children bewildered and sad?
brandon sat, do you really live with other people around you or are you living alone on an island? Come on, it is very hard to be Gay in any country. Your comment is hurtful. It's proof that you don't understand the stress, nor the pain of being different from the majority of the population.
Because in this modern society it takes a lot of courage to come out to people close to you as many people immediately reject gays. They were probably not celebrating her being gay, but celebrating the courage it took to admit it.

This young woman was BORN this way but you were RAISED to be a homophobic prick. Get your head out of your a*s and realize that you are not so high and mighty for being straight.

I personally hate the idea of people throwing a party just for expressing their sexuality. Not because I am against the idea of the LBGTQ community, but because we should not have to celebrate people being brave enough to be a part of the LBGTQ community. I hate the fact that stating you are LBGTQ is not treated as normally as stating your star sign or eye colour. You're sexual preference is not something you choose. They can no more be straight than you can be LBGTQ. If you feel uncomfortable by the idea of anyone not being straight, that is fine but don't enforce your ideas on other people. You stay away from us, and we'll stay away from you.
