Love the tone of this article! Of course, it’s awesome if people weren’t phased by your coming out. Major progress. But I’m going to give you a totally unbiased, straight-white-girl-pumpkin-spice’d reason why I *think* you didn’t get a response:
Your tweet doesn’t come across as coming out.
In fact, it could almost be perceived as poking fun of pride (“I’m gonna make out with EEEEEEVERYONE!”).
I love it. Don’t get me wrong. It’s just kinda beating around the bush…so to speak. If I knew you–which I don’t–I wouldn’t have read into your tweet. I probably would’ve scrolled right by.
Now, if you’d mentioned the rainbow carpet and genital shaped fireworks…that’s a whole other story!
