Being straight is often the only acceptable sexual orientation in some cultures but a new nationwide forum wants to help more gay, bisexual and transgender people break the news to their family.

An increasing number of non-ethnic Danes are seeking help and advice about coming out as gay, Politiken newspaper reported this week.

Sabaah – a Copenhagen-based organisation established to help homosexuals, bisexuals and transgender people with non-ethnic Danish backgrounds – reports that it has been contacted by around 75 people this year seeking help. Since the organisation was established in 2006, it has been contacted by an average of 40-50 people a year.
