    Hey, so I am a lesbian, and am out to just three friends. On Saturday, however, all of my closest friends are meeting up to watch films and I thought it would be the perfect time to tell them. BUT I don't want to do it seriously because I don't want to make the entire day about me and I don't want them to think that I'm not okay with being gay or anything like that and freak them out...I know they will react well to it because both of them are extremely accepting of my two bisexual friends, I just need a funny or light-hearted way of doing it. For example, one of my friends suggested she hold up a cat and ask me if I liked pussy.....but that one's not exactly top of my list....:wink: Not really my style....
    Anyway, if anyone has any (feasible) suggestions I'd be really grateful :slight_smile:

    Bake a cake that says "I'm gay!". Or one that has a big rainbow on it, if you want to be a bit more subtle. Cause really, who doesn't like cake? :grin:

    Here's a list of other lighthearted/funny/creative ways to come out (of which I'm pleased to say, baking a cake is at the very top!)

    I've always thought dramatically exiting an actual closet would be cool!

    Hey!
    My best friend has just said that she will bake me a gay cake :wink:
    Another friend who is bisexual has asked if she can have "half a slice".....
    It seems the puns will never end....
    Thank you for the suggestions, if they don't get the message I may have to jump out of a closet, rainbow flag wrapped around me :wink:

    Hey there :slight_smile: I DID IT!!!!
    I brought through a tray of cakes with the words "I am gay" written on them :slight_smile:
    (I did then run out of the room and hide on the staircase until they'd opened the lid but hey! I did it....)
    They were great, barely reacted at all. I got zero questions on the topic and many hugs and "can I have the one that says gay?"s.
    So all in all, I would highly recommend coming out by cake. :wink:
    Thanks for all the suggestions x
