Coming Out

Coming out is the process of openly sharing one's sexual orientation or gender identity with others. It involves revealing a part of oneself that may have been kept private due to personal or societal reasons. This act can help individuals find acceptance and authenticity but may also involve risks, such as discrimination or rejection. Coming out is a personal journey and differs from person to person in timing and manner. Ultimately, it’s about being true to oneself and fostering honesty in relationships while navigating societal perceptions.
