    To only one person. I'm planning to come out when I get my 1st degree, start to work, get financially independent and dominate a martial art for self defense (I'll start in a month). I also plan to be very educated on GLBTIQQ/etc issues, so I can defend myself and my sexual orientation against prejudiced people. My parents would definately accept me, but I don't know what will the rest of my family and friends say. And since my country is very homophobic, I can't just come out. It's dangerous and risky.

    It sounds coward, but I prefer to build up enough physical and mental strength so I can come out and defend myself and other sexual minority people.

    I'm mostly out to everybody now. There are still some people that don't know, but they will find out eventually.

    I'm not completely out yet but I hope to be one day. I want to wait until I get the job I want and have a bit of seniority. However, I am out to my immediate family and close friends so I'm pretty much out to everyone that really matters

    Only to my friends, and some other people I spoke to around school, but weren't really my friends. I do wonder if my family knows I am, or at least some of them, because I make it kind of obvious at times. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Yeah, I never felt like I was in the closet to begin with. I come from a very supportive family that never made me feel ashamed or bad for how I acted. All through my teenage years (and still now in my 20s) I was super close to my mom and shared my feelings with her. She has known I was gay longer than I have lol. My community is a bit different, but my siblings always stuck up for me in that situation. I realize how lucky I am and I really do appreciate coming from such loving and accepting people <3

    Not really at all...lol. Although, I did just finally clue my psych in today, so that adds to the tally. No we're at a whopping 4! lol. Little by little...

    It depends. To family and friends, yes. To coworkers, I'm only out to one. It's never been appropriate for me to mention my sexual orientation or gender expression at work, so I have simply declined to do so.

    Out to my sister, my mother, one friend, two teachers, a counselor, and my crush (which was a really bad move on my part)

    I have yet to come out to everyone else, including my father, extended family, and most of my friends

    Nope, and for no particular reason either. I'm 98% sure my family would be okay with it, and I really couldn't care less what people at my school would think (leaving in less than a year now). I just don't find it significant enough to "reveal" to everybody.

    No, for living situation reasons. If I were financially on my feet and were able to live out on my own, I would have been out to everyone a looong time ago.

    I'm out to all of my family, some friends and one of my teachers. One of my cousins and my grandparents said they suspected I wasn't straight lol. My mom is the only person I've told that didn't accept it, everyone else has been supportive and understanding. :slight_smile:
