To be fair, woman-woman is a little less weird than man-man.

Did you only recently realize you are homosexual, or did you just wait for the right guy to have sex with? I agree, coming out to the family, if you're not close to them, is pointless. It's like if I dated a woman of color, my parents would object, but I wouldn't care.
