Every year on October 12th (or 11th in the USA) we celebrate the bravery of coming out – living in the open as LGBT people.
Coming out of the closet can be scary to do, but most people agree it’s better to be honest about sexuality, especially to ourselves.
A lot of people seem to overlook the bisexual contribution to LGBT culture, and we here at the Bisexual Index think that Coming Out Day is a great opportunity to remind people that bisexuals are a part of the community and also have to overcome the ‘coming out’ hurdle.
Outside the LGBT community, many people don’t realise just how many bisexuals there are in our society. If you’re thinking of coming out as bisexual, check out our links to good advice, read our FAQ to see how to counter the most likely myths you’ll face and good luck!
We’d like to see the invisibility of bisexuality dented this Coming Out Day – especially online! So we’ve created some graphics to help – just copy and paste the code from our “Coming Out” page into your blog, journal, facebook page or twitter on Coming Out Day! You don’t have to be in to come out either – reaffirm your sexuality and come out again!
Spread the word! On Coming Out Day let’s show everyone that bisexuality isn’t rare, unusual or imaginary! Please repost this on your own blogs, journals, email lists, facebook groups and we can make this a Coming Out Day to remember!
