I wanted to come here and share my thoughts and hear your thoughts on "coming out"

the bravery it takes is amazing, but I do not find it fair that I am expected to tell my family who I am sexually attracted to.. my sisters didn't have to tell nobody they where straight? annoying. What does it matter? I am just the same as the rest of ya'll, just I'm a girl, who likes girls. Put your big girl panties on and accept it.

I just find it so annoying how it even has to be a thing ... why do I need to come out, why does everybody assume everybody to be straight?

I agree!!!
It’s what was drummed into our parents, parents parents, and so on. It’s taking time but it’s getting more socially accepted and our kids are helping to make it into a more accepting world.
You don’t need to come out at all. I’m not, if I happened to begin a new relationship with a woman in the future... then there’d be something to tell.
It is a lot of pressure to make all the queer folk let the normal people know where they are and what they are. Not really fair either.

I have a few LGBTQIA friends near me who have chickens or ducks in the city! I'll have to tell them about this thread. Thank you for making it! <3

I live just a ways out in the country. Unfortunately, this is an area where several LGBTQIA kids here have been kicked out of their homes; and many do not feel comfortable or safe being openly who they are here...though I'm seeing the younger generations being really brave and admirably well-spoken, educated, and firmly spoken about it.

Yes, I live in a small town in rural Texas and it is very hard to be openly LGBTQ+, at least not without great ridicule.

I agree with you, and so does my partner. If an individual prefers to just be a person without declarations of attraction preferences that can be brave, too.

And my partner and I feel that as time passes the automatic assumption that people will be straight will be much less.

Barely Birding, heartbreaking that you and others face such push back for just being yourself. I live an hour north of Austin. You and anyone else on here, give me a holler if you are around these parts! Always looking for open-minded rural friends around here. Also just available as an ear or a hug for anyone who needs one. <3

So I was right about our ducks laying again after a short break. I found one in the nesting box and if the color hadn't been what it was, I would have assumed it was a chicken egg. Not sure who laid it because it was small. I don't want to assume it was Duchess even though her eggs are smaller than Kaeda's eggs.

How are y'all? I baked a mixed berry clafoutis and I am currently crocheting a dozen eggs.
