1. An awakening as to who you really are in terms of sexual orientation and attraction, which usually doesn't fit mainstream heterosexism. Coming out means figuring out that you are lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, etc., and it happens in stages across a certain period of time. One aspect is coming out to yourself, a process that ends at some point.
2. Deciding to tell certain people in your life that you are lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, etc. This is a never ending process, because every time you move, change jobs, or make new friends you have to decide whether to share your sexual orientation or not. It's not always a good idea, because there is still prejudice and discrimination in workplaces.
3. Activists make public declarations about their sexual orientations as lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, pansexuals, etc., not to solidify their identities or to determine if their friends are truly friends, but to reduce the invisibility of these marginalized identities by advocating for acceptance and affirmation in mainstream society.

1. When Ethan realized he was bisexual, he came to understand and accept his sexual orientation by coming out to himself but not to anyone else.

After many years of being accepted as a gay man at work, among his family and friends, and within himself, Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, decided that his coming out would extend to a public declaration so he could use his good fortune and safe life to do something to help youth coming out into more dangerous situations.

A phrase derived from the fascinating high school course, "Coming Apart: The US in the 1960s." The phrase is remarkably successful at irritating others when injected constantly into conversation especially when its use does not make sense. Potatoes and anchors are particularly sensitive to the phrase and exhibit signs of repulsion and are prone to violent behavior upon hearing it.
Person A: Dude, your shoelace is undone. It's coming apart.
Person B: What the heck?
Person A: Your understanding of what I'm saying is coming apart.
Person B: Shut up.
Person A: It looks like our friendship is coming apart.
Person B: Dude shut up.
Person A: Your ability to use words longer than one syllable is coming apart.
(Person B punches Person A)
Person A: My blood vessels are coming apart.
Person B: What the heck?
Person A: Your understanding of what I'm saying is coming apart.
Person B: Shut up.
Person A: It looks like our friendship is coming apart.
Person B: Dude shut up.
Person A: Your ability to use words longer than one syllable is coming apart.
(Person B punches Person A)
Person A: My blood vessels are coming apart.
