Meh, I think straight people overestimate how hard it is to be gay. It used to be terrible. Today, it's not such a big deal. As an adult, you gravitate to social circles where people really don't care much about it. At my job or among my friends, it's about as meaningful as being left-handed or brunette. People know, but it's not really very significant.
The biggest hurts to gay people often come from their families, and particularly their parents. So being the kind of mom who will love her son for just who he is will help your son, no matter how he turns out! Sounds like you're on the right path. Good luck!
