Calum Scott - “Calum Scott: A Coming Out Story”
Рет қаралды 1,436,825
5 жыл бұрынCalum Scott was a finalist on the UK's performance show 'Britain's Got Talent,' and thanks to a powerful voice, great songs, and passionate performance style, he's parlayed it into global acclaim. We've previously had him in for a solo performance of "What I Miss Most," a tribute to his hometown of Hull and a valentine to the way his community there grounds him whenever he feels adrift. This time 'round we spent time with Scott as he recounted a painful part of his young adult life - processing the complex emotions of being a gay teen and letting the world around him aware of his sexual orientation. Friends abandoned him early on, and it hurt. But in a poignant profile, he says he found the courage to be honest about himself through music. "I know that there are people young and old struggling with the same questions, and living with that relentless fear and heartbreak. I make the music I do because I want to inspire the right kind of conversations. If one less kid can grow up without hiding who they are along the way or having to believe that who they love is something that will make them lonely, then everything I went through will be worth it."

Some people say this 'i don't care or it doesn't matter to me' and that it IMO dismissive. It DOES matter to most gay people a whole lot it is a core part of their being that alot of people DO still get persecuted for even if it is subtle.

Calum's story has just made me realise that I have the best friends I could ask for. When I came out to my friends their reactions and support were so amazing and I thank them so much for that. However I still can't get up the nerve to come out to my parents - I'm so scared that they might reject me. Plus my dad has diabetes and I'm terrified that the shock could have an adverse effect on his health - I could never forgive myself if that happened.

To my family and friends I am a cold rugged and old fashion type of guy. So when my son told me he was gay it seemed like everybody expected me to go ballistic on him. He even told me over the phone long distance, to be honest it hurt me more that he thought he had to put distance between us. All I said to him was I know and you are still my son and I love you no matter what anybody thinks. I also reassured him that I would break anybody that f**** with him because of who he is. I am also proud I heard it from him instead of gossip. And I made sure my whole family knows where I stand and they stand by me. They promise me they would look out for him when I am gone.

Wow. What an innately biased remark.Sadder still is that neither Nathan or the 673 individuals who agreed recognize how offensive this is. Please ask yourself why you would care in the first place? Why would his sexuality come in to play at all ? This comment implies that if you were not a fan of his music,then you would consider it an issue. This man opens his soul and reveals how he was ostracized throughout his life for living in his own skin . Perhaps dig a little deeper and fully self evaluate and think before speaking out and potentially adding to the problem.

You are very brave Calum. So many of us have walked the same path, felt the same betrayal. So many of us still press on and not let how others perceive us to define who we are. You are never, ever alone on that path. I am certain that your actions in your position have inspired at least one, and without a doubt hundreds more, to be themselves and to feel good being themselves. Each of us should be so lucky to be able to do that for so many others.

My brother came out and said he was gay back in 2005. It wasn't the reaction everyone wanted to hear or see. It's still planted in my head that day...that night. My older brother was beaten as soon as he said he was. I had to pull my mom away from him and I was terrified. I sheltered my older brother, I literally put my body on top of him so my mom would stop. He renounced his place as a family member and changed his whole name...and nobody stopped him but me. He went on with it...later in years...I came out to my family. I figured it was obvious because the way I am...the way I talk and walk. In my culture, there are people called two-spirited. You have the spirit of a man and a woman you have the actions and thoughts as one. I stood my ground even though I was terrified...but my family finally accepted it. My brother is happily engaged with his other half far away from home. Just this past month, we lost our uncle, and he understood everything, told everyone to love each other. Our family came back together and we all got to meet my brother's fiance. I'm sorry, you're coming out story had me in tears and thought I share mine. Thank you.

My own memory from that time of my own experience is as indelibly inked upon my psyche as yours is, so I definitely identified with what you were relating here. What you did for your brother was an incredible act of love. I’m sure he’s never forgotten that and I know your ancestors would be so proud of you. 🪶

So sorry you had to go through that. Everybody deserves the opportunity to be themselves. I was lucky. When I finally came out, my mother said she'd always known I was gay. My dad wouldn't discuss the matter for awhile, but then began cutting out Dear Abby columns from the paper about gay people, then mailing them to me. I guess he figured that if Abby was OK with me being gay, he could accept it, too.

I wish the world could have been more accepting. I haven't even told my parents that I am gay but I well aware that they both knew. My siblings knew because I brought a boyfriend home and my parents didn't even complain about it hence I am already 28 and a teacher. They've only wished me to be better. I've asked my sister once about "why doesn't father asked me to get married (to a woman)" and she said "oh father told us to let you do what you wanted to do he is scared of losing a son" because a second cousin of mine committed suicide after finding out his boyfriend is getting married to a woman. That's what made him think that way. I am just glad my parents were very open-minded regardless of not being too exposed to such circumstances.

@Calum Scott. I really felt the same way. As a child just being told "you should have crushes on females" I always made friends with guys. And when guys had relationships, I really just tried to fake being happy in relationships with females. However, I never had one person walk away from me when i said I was gay. That must be heartbreaking. My mom's reaction actually was very similar. She did not care too much about it and treated me the same way as I always was. You have an amazing voice.

Finally, the sensation of being free without hiding yourself is worthy and one more step to what we do diserve...live as free as posible.

Calum came out during BGT, it was a brave act he had ever done for himself. As coming out to everyone is not an easy thing to do because some are afraid that the closest people by their side will leave, not acceptance. Hiding myself in the closet is tiring, it hurts so much that i have to lie about who am really are. Scared that people will hate and judge. Has been always asking myself, why can't i be normal? who am i? is it okay to be like this? should i change? All of these questions are tremendously painful to hear. My friend said, "some people rather live in the world of lies than being sad their whole life" pathetic isn't?
@henrykarry2246 5 жыл бұрын
True, I had to hide myself as long as I can, because I knew that my parent could not withstand the truth. I knew I shouldn't be so selfish to tell them the truth and let them to bear all the criticism by relatives and friends when that's not their fault. Sometimes, things are better to stay hidden. Sometimes, it's better to not take down the mask. For almost 8 years, the mask that I'm holding on everyday had shaped so well that no one had ever doubt about my sexual orientation. I had to do this, because I'm so scared that anyone that know the truth will pass it to my family. I once doubted, should I feel shame about it, but I think that's not important anymore, as the act I made had become the true me in others people eye. Coming out or stay in the closet, no real answer, just think about ur own situation. No right or wrong, just which one u choose to sacrifice.

el soul Who says you're not normal? Love doesn't need to be based on gender, it' not based on gender. There's a reason the symbol of love is heart. If people don't understand who you are, they are not normal. Stop and don't think about what people say. Don't hide it, if they became mad at you let them be, your parents disown you, live YOUR LIFE and prove that they can still be proud of you despite what thay think of you. The world is unfair. If you want it to be fair, you will be the one to make it so. You're not gonna be sad your whole life if you become true to yourself. You'll be happy. You'll see your real friends. You'll see who's true to you. I have a bestfriend. She's lesbian but didn't came out, and let the girl she loves go, because she's afraid of what her parents and friends would think about her.Then the love of her life, was diagnosed with lukemia, and refuses for theraphy, and just waited for her life to end because she thought my bestfriend didn't love her. My friend.decided to live in lies, and I can tell you with all my heart, my soul pouring out, its not worth it, lies won't make you happy. Instead it will keep you from possbilities and happiness you might deserve.

@@jervin1640 your words are wise. It is inspiring but somehow, i live under a situation where i can't risk my everything yet. I'm still young.. Just like others, i have to think a lot of possibilities, my family may disown me? or accept me? friends leaving? or stay? society judging? or being nice? I can't go through all of these rn. One thing for sure, I'm still figuring myself, exploring myself, I need more information about myself, I need to build up myself. thank you for your support mate. I get the concept of love is love. I've been learning about LGBTQ+ this past years, i want to be a part of this community where people know who am really are and not as a supporter only.

el soul I understand. Just remember when its time to decide, when you think you are a ready. Even when everything is hitting you from top to bottom. Please, choose to be yourself. Trust me. What people will say doesn't matter. It may hurt you, but you'll live. It may bring you down but you could always stand up. But if you choose to betray yourself by living a life just to meet others expectation and standards, you will never ever be happy. Just keep in mind all that I said. And if ever, just if ever you need to talk abou it. You can PM me. Take care.

Callum is honestly the most amazing person and I can relate to his story so much , I came out to my parents and they didn’t accept it at all and honestly his story made me cry because it’s the complete opposite reaction from my family and friends , my friends are the best people in my life , they accepted me for who I am and who I love whereas my parents didn’t and honestly I relate so much to this song and even tho it’s from a different perspective it has helped me so much because my best friends are the family that I chose and it brings me to the realisation I have the best friends that are there for me and will be there for me throughout my entire life

I am 50 years old and out. It took me almost 40 years to come out and I felt immense relief afterwards. My sister was the first to know, its just easier with a sister. My two brothers found out eventually and all of them accepted it. My dad passed away when I was fourteen so I never told him. My mom knew, but could not accept it, saying to other people I was sick. She passed away three years ago without us ever speaking of it, even though she lived with me for years. When I heard the song No Matter What, my heart broke, as I would have loved to hear those words from her.

I experienced most of the same feelings growing up. Feeling different and not knowing why. Realizing I was different and had to hide my wants, and feelings and needs . Not being able to be myself I questioned my worth and lived in fear of being found out. Always sending out mixed messages to appear like the the rest of the guys. Finally I could no longer live with myself and had to be me at the cost of loosing what I thought was everything. It was a long process of coming to that point. But it is what made me the man I am today. One with much courage and strength and a huge loving heart. For those friends who walked away, weren't really your friends. Give them time too- some may realize the special friend you are. Have courage to love yourself and be the best you. Because you are worthy of love ❤️. Thank you for sharing your journey- with hopes that it may bring another hope and strength. Love you for all that is you 🤗
