Expanding the article
[edit]As someone appropriately noted, the article mainly covers the topic of coming out as it relates to LGBT people in the United States. I do not think that there should be a new article written about coming out in other parts of the world as the United States is not the focal point of such human-level phenomena. I will personally be adding possible sources to this section for myself and other editors to consider while we expand the article. I think it is incredibly vital that an all-encompassing perspective be represented. If anyone would like to join me in sharing sources, please do! This should certainly be a team effort. Hopefully with the participation of LGBT editors in countries other than the States. 4theloveofallthings (talk) 07:35, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

US centred article
[edit]Paragraph three of the 'History' section mentions the 'first US citizen to come out'. should this not be cut? it is one of the explicitly mentioned issues within the article that it is primarily concerning the united states of america. why should this person be mentioned over, say, the first person to come out in the world? or for that matter any and every country on our planet?

- I do think it's a bit US centred. I think that maybe some of them should be kept, but I see no real significance in Donald Webster Cory for the summary, but I am not familiar with him to know for certain. —Panamitsu (talk) 21:41, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
