 * Coming out “of the closet” is the act of revealing your queer gender, sexual and/or romantic identity, an act made a necessity due to living in a society that assumes uniformly cisgender and heterosexual (which I will shorten to cishet) experiences.

To Milk, coming out both humanized the queer experience for cishet people and encouraged queer people to more easily build a stronger community.

 * I want us all to be united in combatting the problems of cis-het norms, but I need us to acknowledge that there still is rampant sexism that is coupling with genderism that often presents as harsh and lacking reality to us female-bodied genderbenders.
