ESPEach year on October 11, National Coming Out Day encourages civil awareness recognizing and supporting those in the LGBTQ community.
The day celebrates individuals who publicly identify as bisexual, gay, lesbian, transgender – coming out regarding their sexual orientation and/or gender identity being akin to a cultural rite of passage for LGBT people. As more of the LGBTQ community come out, those who know them are more likely to become more educated. They also become more supportive and understanding, too.
