Coming out is ????? ??????? ????????a huge moment in the life of any LGBTQ person.

It's a formality we sometimes feel we owe the world, but a claiming of identity that we ultimately decide we owe ourselves.

Over the past 10 years, a new trend has arisen from the vlogosphere. People are using Youtube as a platform to come out, share their stories, and connect with an online support system.
