    I noticed that a ton of the regulars on this board came out this month (October), including myself. Was this like a record for this board or is this the norm?

    I think i was mainly because of Coming out day, but I think it was just inspiration for most of the people who were going 2 come out anyway

    Well October 11th was National Coming Out Day, so I assume that had something to do with it.

    I'm always intending to come out to my brother Drew, but never do.

    I'm gonna come out to my mother soon, and sod my dad, I have absolutely no clue how he'll react. I'll tell him when I've moved out.

    I just barely started coming out this month.
    It's really cool, though 'cause *most* of my friends are cool with it.
    The ones that aren't, it's just like... Hm...

    As for my mom, she assumes I'm bi because she read my myspace that said I was bi back when I was questioning.
    She gave me SO MUCH hell over that.
    I don't really want to tell her anything now, so... Hm... Kinda sucks, but whatever.

    Congrats to everybody else who came out! :grin:

    I did to one of my best friends. She has been extremely supportive. I also came out to my cousin who is gay. Great discussion with him too.

    I came out to two more friends and they've both been great about it. One of them is actually a girl I'll be moving in with soon. So I thought it was important for her to know.
