Thema: Coming-out

Coming-out im engeren Sinn bedeutet, anderen davon zu erzählen, lesbisch oder schwul zu sein. Für uns Lesben und Schwule ist dies ein wichtiger Wendepunkt oder Abschnitt unseres Lebens und unserer Persönlichkeitsentwicklung. Im weiteren Sinn ist mit Coming-out auch gemeint, sich selbst über die eigene Homosexualität klar zu werden und dazu zu stehen. Auch für Erfahrungen, von gesellschaftlichen Normvorstellungen und Stereotypen abzuweichen, wird der Begriff Coming-out verwendet.

Thema: Coming-of-age
