In my eyes i feel that people that don't come out of the closet aren't always scared of doing it but they keep it a secret for the thrill of trying to keep it a secret.
Like me i like to keep a secret cos i don't act 100% str8 yet i don't exactly not act gay type of thing, its just i like to keep people wondering about ma sexuality. Especially @ my age as you don't no whether ur str8 bi or gay
Whats ur opinion n why do you or do not tell people about ur sexuality
Lol

well i dont neccessary keep it as a secret for a thrill....
straight people dont neccesarily go on about telling people that they are straight...so i dont think gay people need to do the same either. ur sexual orientaton is ur own.

Nice thread. To tell the truth, i'm in closet because i'm scared and not because it's fun or thilling to keep it as secret. I've been brought up surrounded by an homophobic society and unluckily i couldn't avoid taking prejudices too seriously. Another thing, let's say thrilling this time, is to 'come out' to your parents/family and closest friends, so that all the people you love in the world know thay you are actually gay, sincere to tem; but keeping as a sacret to everyone else: not just hanging around everywhere yelling you're gay and taking it as something special; take it as being gay is as 'normal' (I hate the word normal) as being heterosexual (I also hate the word 'straight', as if we were twisted, wtf)...

Yeah I agree with most of the comments....I dont meet someone new and say "Hi, I'm Geoff, I'm a homosexual". I don't hide it, but I don't put it out there either.
TBh I really don't give a flying fuck what most people think, I'm me and that's end of. Why does my boss or colleague need to know who and what I sleep with? I would classify myself as out as everyone I actually know well, know's I'm gay, but I don't go running around shouting it out.

I'll put you forward the following situation:
You're doing your job, you're new in the company, and the boss calls you to his study. He tells you that he's heard you are homosexual (you've already told, in the context of a casual chat, to some of your ,mates in the company) and is seriously thinking about dismissing you, just because he thinks that your sexual condition is not 'suitable' for the place you work in. What would be your best REPLY -short or long- in order to stand up for homosexuality and shut his mouth up, although he dismisses you anyway?
I know this thing hasn't anything to do with 'Out/In the closet' deal mystery man started. But, as far as we've been talking, things got interesting. And this situation could not only happen in a work place, but everywhere, as we're always under social pressure and discrimination because of our sexual condition.
