Then i suppose you're at a cross roads - and unfortunately some people have this decision thrust upon them. Which isn't fair. But that's life. What are you doing to move on from living with your brother? As much as i deplore homophobia i'm not sure how realistic it is for you to expect them to change their long held (though unfounded) views in order for you to continue living with them. It's sad if your own brother can't accept you i agree - but who really loses out here? I don't always agree that we need family. Not if it's this sort of family. Go and find those worthy of your time and company, if it's the best you can make of this situation then what do you have to lose? Good luck.
