I am out to my entire family, my friends, my employers and my neighbors...That said, I am NOT out to my residents of my nursing home. Some "get it" when they see Arc come in to work, but I did have one elderly man ask if Arc was my son, and another with expressive aphagia just gave me a knowing giggle...I have no expectation that my residents need to know, nor do I have an expectation that if they did they would condone.

At my job at the college, I don't tell my students per se, but they figure it out when they meet the family.

I've been OUT since I left my marriage to my ex-husband in late-1999, and thus far I've had not one scrap of negativity...even though I came "out" in a very predominantly Catholic community where I have lived for 33 years.
