is it necessary to come out to the world

[hank]

o ok... from what you had posted, I thought maybe you shied a way from affection from boyfriends cause you didnt want the world to know your bi... but showing affection to your boyfriends, isnt that like telling the world 'hey im gay or bi-sexual"? or am I getting it wrong?

well no not exactly. It is evidence that I am bi or gay, but if my boyfriend isn't with me, they wouldn't know unless the asked. I don't care if they figure it out either by seeing me hold a guys hand or make out with a guy, but I don't have any outward signs of it, if you saw me alone you would have to ask me to know. Or if I was kissing my girl friend they wouldn't assume that I was bisexual, and I wouldn't care. Why should I

I am not hiding, it just isn't the first thing on my mind. I can't run around wearing rainbows because I am not gay, I still like women, and that shuts that door in a lot of cases. I am not ashamed of being bisexual, but it isn't a point of pride for me either, its incidental, I am proud that I came out, happy for that even.
