Believe it or not, COVID is what made me come out. My college was starting to send out emails to parents about how the virus would affect our learning as well as the fact that we would all be sent home for an extra week for spring break. I had a feeling that if I went...

My coming out story was actually not at all how I pictured it, which I suppose is probably really relatable. Coming out, while not necessary for everyone, really helped me figure out who I truly am and made me overall so much happier! However, it was quite the process...

For most of us, coming out is frightening. And it never ends: almost every time we form new friendships or start a new job, we directly or indirectly come out again.We know that this process can be difficult, particularly the first time: we are afraid how the people...

I was a fresh New Yorker in my mid-twenties, with a pixie cut, an idiosyncratic sense of style, oh, and identified as straight.Before I came out, I was in and out of relationships with men. It was difficult and confusing. I always felt something was missing and gave...

I had my first ever sexual thought about Kendra the playboy bunny. I was in 6th grade and had someone seen an episode of their MTV show. I didn’t think anything of it until I was in middle school and all my friends started talking a lot about boys and dating. I...

I actually have 2 coming out stories — first, I came out as a lesbian in November 2016. Then, I came out as genderfluid this past April 2020.Both of my coming out stories are very technology-based, which makes sense given that I’m a millennial (and right on the cusp...

Ally Byer’s Coming Out Story

Unlike many queer youth, I was lucky enough to have a pretty “easy” coming out story. Not that coming out is ever easy for anyone, but the reality is that homophobia from family is a fear for a lot of queer people, but it was never for me. My Aunts are gay. I grew up...
