    I've just recently figured out that I am a genderqueer bisexual, and that I want to come out sooner rather than later, but I don't know how. My family is very accepting (4 out of my 5 aunts are lesbians), but I still don't know how the heck to do this. If anybody has any advice, please reply to this.

    Hey,

    The good thing is that you already know that you have an accepting family, so that hopefully should take some of the pressure off. There are so many ways to come out-- none are really wrong-- it's just a matter of what you are most comfortable doing. You could always try bringing it up in conversation casually if you don't feel like you can sit them down and say it. One way or another you'll figure out how to say it :slight_smile:

    Simple is best. Just have an open and honest conversation with your loved ones. If you're afraid, then it's ok to wait. When you're ready, you'll know what to say.

    Take care. :gay_pride_flag:
