I'm out to everyone I know (work & personal). Have had nearly all positive recations. A member of my family had an initial problem but a quick bitch slap sorted them out. I do consider myself lucky (from what I've read) that my work colleagues, friends and family all accept me. There are some really sad stories about people being rejected for simply who they are.

I guess at the moment that gay folk (particularly in the US) are riding a wave of support. Several US states has legalised same-sex marriages in the past month with New Hampshire to follow (next week even?) and possibly NY depending on the senate vote. I guess at some point there will be a backlash but for the moment at least the momentum is positive for gay people.
