Splash “I’m Gay!” Mountain

Splash “I’m Gay!” Mountain

Gina, a 16 year old from California, has known that she was gay for about a year. During this time, she was contemplating ways of coming out to her family. Gina knew that she wanted her “come out” to her family to reflect her personality and a family trip to Disneyland was just that opportunity. Gina posed with her hand-made “I’m gay” sign while riding Splash Mountain with her Mom. Gina told BuzzFeed “I am not the type of person to have a deep, sit-down conversation, so I wanted to tell them in a lighthearted and fun way.”

Gina’s Mom then texted the photo to her Dad and brother and the response from family, friends and social media has been positive. Gina’s twitter picture has been re-tweeted over 4000 times. “People have responded saying I’ve inspired them to do the same thing, which I think is the coolest part of it all,” she said.
