October 11: National Coming Out Day

[Wonder.]

I was just wondering if anyone was coming out tomarrow or maybe showing support for LGBT.

If I ever get around to it I'm going to draw a pink triangle on a shirt.

Also, if you have a webcam watch this video and participate.

I don't go to school on campus, so I'm coming out on Facebook tomorrow. To tell you the truth, I'm just starting to get the butterflies. Even when I've gone through this three times already. I guess it's just the 48 people who will see it that is getting me nervous. But, it's not like there's anything to risk. I don't even live near most of the people on my friends list, let alone go to school with them. Now, a year ago it would be a problem. But now, I'm free, and I can't let anything stop me from being who I am.

noo ho ho

I would love to support this cause, but there are several reasons why I can't be up front about my sexuality to the public eye. It's unfortunate that I'm not confident enough in myself to be okay with telling my co-workers, but I'm still not comfortable with it.

By the way, if you have a Facebook, donate your status for National Coming Out Day. You don't have to list your orientation, or you can even lie and choose "straight ally" depending on your situation...

Done :)

Chris Mann is bisexual and today is National Coming Out Day. I'm coming out for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender equality because it's 2010 and almost 90% of LGBT youth experience harassment in school, and too many lives have been lost. Donate your status and join me by clicking here: http://bit.ly/9cpTxr.

What does "Come out" mean?

Like coming out of the closet?

Oh shiiiiiiiiiiiiiit... I missed it :( I confused the dates and thought 11.'s today, and it was yesterday :/
I'm out for quite a while already, but some people seem to think that it's something that not everyone should know and I wanted to show them I'm not ashamed of it and refuse to hide myself. And I also wanted to donate the status.
Ahh, that really bothers me... :(



...And yes, it means coming out of the closet =)

Weird enough, it was also the day the Chilea (Or whatever) miners "came out" of the cave they were stuck in. :P

It's ironic, because yesterday is when I finally told myself that I'm gay.
Meanwhile, I had no idea this day existed!
