coming out

1. An awakening as to who you really are in terms of sexual orientation and attraction, which usually doesn't fit mainstream heterosexism. Coming out means figuring out that you are lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, etc., and it happens in stages across a certain period of time. One aspect is coming out to yourself, a process that ends at some point.2. Deciding to tell certain people in your life that you are lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, etc. This is a never ending process, because every time you move, change jobs, or make new friends you have to decide whether to share your sexual orientation or not. It's not always a good idea, because there is still prejudice and discrimination in workplaces.3. Activists make public declarations about their sexual orientations as lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, pansexuals, etc., not to solidify their identities or to determine if their friends are truly friends, but to reduce the invisibility of these marginalized identities by advocating for acceptance and affirmation in mainstream society.

Coming out to yourself means you realize your sexual orientation is not what you thought. Coming out to others means you share that new information with friends and possibly family. Coming out to the public is done to make lesbian, gay, bisexual and other identities less invisible and to educate people.
Example:
Shaun is coming out to herself as bisexual but hasn't told anyone else yet. Elaine decided to included her mother in her coming out process so arranged a lunch meeting to confide that she is a lesbian. Tim wanted to do more for the community so coming out on a national talk show made his gay identity more visible.

A way to explain to your family or friends you’re anything but straight.

Don’t do it during thanksgiving though-
Example:
Son:“Mom, dad, I’ve planned to tell you this for a while but, Im coming out to you as gay.”
Mom: “It’s that damn phone, isn’t it”
