Thinking maybe I'll do this to my profile pic on national coming out day.. I don't feel like I "need" to for my own sense of pride but, feeling a little bit drawn to just bring like "f** it, why not?" Did the pic show up?
Yup if I'm being completely honest it would be flipped for me as well. I think if I was going to describe my orientation in detail, I'm like Kinsey 4. But then there's the whole actual het life experience that overshadows my little tiny bit of queer experience. In facebook speak, it's complicated... I keep having to remind myself, I haven't talked to my Dad. So maybe that's s little too direct for putting out in public. But I'm at the point now where I think I could do it without fear (ok with less fear) and that feels great.
The "so what?" Is a bit defensive. I am def going to queer up my facebook for coming out day. there's going to be posts and a profile pic filter...not sure yet what else.
I ended up not being so direct. Since I'm not out to my Dad yet, I thought I'd wait. Instead I posted a whole bunch of lgbt pride and bi pride stuff all over my page, and put a rainbow filter up.
After what I thought was a disastrous mistake I did a Facebook Outing. It turned out to be one of the most humbling day, nay weeks of my life. I could not believe the love and support I received from my family and friends present and past. People from all over the world I know contacted me. I've never in my life felt so at ease as I did after that post. #itgetsbetter
