Coming Out Stories
Here are some of the Coming Out stories from MP group. As you read the essays linked below, remember that the coming out process is likely to vary tremendously depending on your age, gender, family circumstances and economic independence, environment and experiences as an immigrant, second-generation (or later) member of the diaspora, or as a resident in your country of origin.
We hope that the following accounts from MP members, inspire you in your journey, and encourage you to send in your experiences to us. Experiences of coming out post-377 are especially welcome.
