:)  sorry.  I tend to do that.

about your experience, you may have been one of the stronger ones, seece.  While you might have risen above it, i'm sure it still affected you in some way, however small it may seem to you now.  I live in the US, so things might be a bit different here as well, but I was strong in who I was growing up.  I didn't feel that anybody needed to know anything that wasn't their business.  I knew who I was and that is all that mattered.  Not everyone reacts the same way.  There are a lot of people who stay in the closet until they are much older too.
