So, I have been wondering, how many of us got out of the closet while the forums were gone? I had a rough idea that I was definitely into girls and a bit into boys (not just aesthetically) back then. I tried to come out as bisexual but my dad was against it and told me to not mention that nonsense in front of anyone. I got into Wicca (the community one with mentorship) when I was rebelling in school but I ended up finding a kind community of women who were kicked out for being attracted to women and/or being trans. Through OneTopic and TheClick's communities, I finally got the confidence and support I always wanted. I am finally out of the closet and a lot of people in my family accepts it. I think some of them need more time, they are all kind people and have never been homophobic. They just didn't expect it from me.
Honestly, I personally don't see myself coming out anytime soon. Plus as an introverted person, that's going to be an extra tough hurdle to pass through. reply
Im slightly out of the closet in school, trying to hard to "look" and "act" like a straight girl but i dont think they're buying it. As for my family they will never know. 2 reply
im happy that you have a great support system and you're in a good place now. as for me, i attended my first ever pride parades last month. though i'm still not it to my family yet, being surrounded by friends who are in the community and supportive is still such a great feeling. reply
I've come out to some people. So far all my friends are supportive. My bf is a bit uncomfortable with it but he just doesn't mention it. Though i found out he was uncomfortable mostly bc he is a hardcore closet bi/ace/poly in heavy denial. We are both more at peace after it was discussed and i found out about his true preferences. My family doesn't...... reply

Found out I was trans not too long ago, I am NOT coming out anytime soon My parents have expressed vehemently that they’re homophobic.. I’m prolly gonna start my transition during or after college, most likely after though! Hoping I can cut my hair short during Highschool and maaaaybbeeee they won’t notice I’m fruity reply
My brother, cousins my age on my dad's side, and all my friends and classmates pretty much know, but no adults. I'm graduating soon, so i'll tell my mom before i graduate. My dad isn't going to know until we go to some daddy-daughter therapy sessions :) reply
