When you are ready to come out, finding the right words can be battle which is why Lizzy the Lezzy wrote a "Coming Out Guide". Although be warned, following the advice of a cartoon character is not the way forward ;)

Yesterday, for those unaware, was National Coming Out Day! An ideal time for "not out" gays and lesbians to break free of that cramped closet. For those of you who took this opportunity to come out to your parents, friends, co-workers or even just yourself, well done!

If you aren't ready to come out to others yet, don't stress, I have friends who found it easier coming out than telling their parents their GCSE results, and others that after 10 years still haven't been able to. Don't feel pressurised, only you know when the time is right. Whether you are out or not, be proud of who you are!

Some Advice From Lizzy - How To Tell Your ...

Dog - Dogs are not judgmental. I guarantee they will still come sniffing around your crotch.

Parents - "Mum, Dad. I have acknowledged my sexual identity to myself and now I want to tell you that I'M A MUFF MUNCHER!!"

Brother - "Hey bro, remember when you used to sit on my head and fart in my face? Remember when you spat in my mouth? Remember all those times you punched me? Remember when your football kit smelled like your girlfriend’s pussy?

Sister - "So that’s why you found your vibrator in a harness."

Best Straight Girlfriend - "So can I feel your tits now?"

Best Straight Male Friend - "and then I had a THREESOME the other night with 2 other slutty lesbians."

Ex Boyfriend - "So you see, it wasn’t just because you had a small dick."

Lesbian Friends - "So do you wanna lick my pussy now?"

The world ... Run naked down the street shouting "I’M HERE, I’M QUEER, I’M A PUSSY ENGINEER".
