Hey everyone,

I've been struggling with my sexuality for as long as I can remember. While I'm fairly confident I'm somewhere along the lines of bisexual, actually admitting that to myself, my friends, and my family is, I feel, a long way away. I come from a conservative, Catholic family, and while I doubt they would throw me out on the streets, it would be a lot to deal with. As far as my religion goes, I'm devout and still struggling with it on a personal level. I've yet to have any relationships with another guy, so coming out doesn't feel particularly relevant to me personally right now.

Anyway, this post isn't about advice on my personal struggle. When I struggle with something, I often turn to my iPod for comfort. That being said, do any of you have any songs you listen to that comfort you along the struggle? I'm looking for music somewhat relating to the struggle of sexuality to add to my iPod and was hoping you all may have some suggestions. Let me know!

Good suggestions Rob, not about LGBT, but pretty meaningful. These songs keep me strong when dealing with crap in my life:

most Macklemore songs
TI- I'm Back
TI- Go Get It
Dr. Dre and Tupac- California Love
Lil B- Charlie Sheen
Xzibit-Napalm
MMG- Power Circle
Eminem- Without Me
