So, coming out as LGBTQ is hard, so I want to make it easier for people! Do you want to start your coming out process but don't know how? Come out here (I was first out on the internet!) Want to practice coming out to family or friends? Put it here! If you want, you can ask for tips on how to come out from someone who has already done it (me.)

I’m bisexual. Nobody knows except for my therapy group (everyone’s LGBTQ+ there so it was easy there) and now hundreds of strangers now it too. My parents are very accepting and loving, but I can’t seem to find the right moment and don’t know how to tell ‘em. Anyone tips?

Well, it really depends on your parents. You could leave the device that you wrote this on out with this page up for them to discover or maybe even google "How to tell my parents I am bisexual" and leave that out for them to see. Or you could start a conversation about LGBTQ+ (maybe even how everyone in your therapy group is - that implies you and you can go from there) and then tell them casually as you are on that subject anyway. Or perhaps just write a note/ letter saying that you are bisexual and leave it on their laptop of whatever for them to find. Good luck and I hope this helped.

Well, it depends on how you want to tell them. Do you want it to be very casual, not a big deal? Slip it into the conversation, maybe when you're talking about people in your therapy group's sexuality. Do you not want to be in-person to see their reactions? Text them, email them, write them a letter. Do you feel like you wouldn't be safe if you told them? Go to a friend's house, call your parents there, and if they react badly you can spend the night. It all depends on how your parents would react. Your brain will try to tell you that your parents will kick you out or scold you or pretend you never said anything, but sometimes you will be pleasantly surprised! Good luck coming out to your parents, and hopefully a lot more people when you're comfortable!

BISEXUALITY RULES!!! Fitting under the bisexual umbrella (pansexual), I can say from experience that bisexual and everyone who identifies as similar identities RULE and deserve ALL THE LOVE and so do EVERYONE in the LGBTQ+ community!!!

Hello, I'm pansexual and demisexual. Meaning I don't feel sexual attraction to a person without a close emotional connection.

FELLOW PANSEXUAL! You are wonderful, no matter the circumstances it takes for you to feel sexual attraction! <3

>< I do apologize but I'm not demisexual as I posted. After I posted, I did a lot of thinking and realized I'm actually asexual.
PAN-da (hehe get it) 4 years ago
that's fine! your sexuality can change at any time, no need to be sorry about that!

OKAY FOLKS, i might need some help. i'm already out to my parents as pansexual (though they like to pretend it never happened), but i had been considering coming out to them as agender. THEN yesterday a classmate on our google meet said that her mom like to try to guess people's genders based on how they look. she said her mom thought i was a guy, and my stomach did FLIPS. it felt really nice to be seen as a guy, just really right. so i might be a trans guy??? i dont even know what i'm asking for here, reassurance? advice? any trans people wanna help me?
PAN-da (hehe get it) (Post author) 4 years ago
i had kind of settled on agender after trying on a few labels (genderfluid, agenderflux, nb, etc) because i'm kind of androgynous (by androgynous i mean both fem and masc) with a masc lean but looking back? it just makes sense? i've always had a sort of... not really obsession... but like... fascination? with being in a mlm relationship, like "oh being in a mlm relationship seems really cool and nice" but i knew it would never happen to me because i'm not a man. but it's hard to explain, im thinking about being a guy and it's making me feel really nice inside, like "hey this feels natural" and now im kind of rambling bc im nervous but it just feels really right and can someone please help me?

I’m Bisexual. My parents don’t know yet. Tbh, I doubt I’ll sit down and tell them, I’ll either say “This is my girlfriend” or “I asked out/got asked out by (name), can I go on a date with her?” I also might paint my nails Bisexual pride flag colors (dark pink, purple and blue).
