Most likely as a Hindu you never had to fear the response you would receive by telling your parents or other family members that you are a Hindu.

And once you've been vulnerable like that, it never goes away. There will ALWAYS be a part of you that remembers it and it will affect you for the rest of your life. That alone is enough vulnerability. The fact that the LGBT community still deals with a lot of verbal and physical assaults as well just makes things worse. And yes, this is still an issue in the UK, in Norway, the US, and other western countries.
