Bisexual, gay and trans people - how did you come out?
Admittedly I knew for years and I kept it to myself, however I was bought up in a very open minded household and I accepted it as normal.
Then I met my first girlfriend when I was 20, changed my relationship status. I was at my mum's house around a week later, she said that she & my step dad had seen us out together and had recognized my girlfriend's bright pink hair. So I started to explain, and my mum cut me off and said she already knew!
Thankfully my mum's always understood, and she knew that I look at who a person is rather than their gender without me having to explain that - she just knows.  |

Erm, I'm not sure it's coming out as such!
I had a few girlfriends and that was more than fine with my immediate family (the joys of a bohemian upbringing!). My mum was constantly trying to set me up with her friends daughters if she found out they were gay.
It wasn't until I was in my second year at uni that I realised I was also attracted to men - my partner at the time was invited to our house (he has an androgynous name). The shock when they realised their assumed he was a she was quite amusing and lots of jokes were made about my 'faux lesbianism'.
They haven't assumed another gender of a partner since then!  |

I suppose in all honesty other than during a time of youthful experimentation my of sexuality and proclivity arose from a desire to have some sort of emotion free sex life beyond the tragedy which meant I was no longer on a physical plain with my one true soul-mate......
I would gladly have stayed straight and monogamous had circumstances allowed ....

Only my wife knows that I'm bi and tbh that's the way I want it to stay , my first bi experience was in a threesome with my wife and a 'single ' guy we met on here ( when we had our couples profile) . |

I was in the military when it was against the rules to be gay. Hated lying about my weekends and meeting "girls". A few weeks after the ban was lifted on a pub night out with most of my squadron I stood up after many drinks and told everyone.
Apart from one guy who was under the impression that you could catch gay from shared toilets, I've never had a problem.
My sister had guessed years ago and so had my mum. She completed my sentence when I tried to tell her and broke down.
Happily out ever since, even as my alter ego. |

My family were supiscious of a close female friend I had as a teen but then I married a man and it was all forgotten.
I dont think I really ever came out, my first girlfriend was my friend and we got closer over time so everyone around us kinda saw it developing. |
