The LGBT+ Coming-Out Story: the moment a Closet Gay or Bi or Trans etc. character comes out to everyone around them. This includes a character's journey to embracing their identity and who they really are. Happens at least once for almost every LGBT character ever, but most often seen with lesbian or gay characters, due to the No Bisexuals trope and trans characters still being rare as well (as are asexual, pansexual, etc. characters). Although there are only so many variations you can do with it, you can be assured that any LGBT cast member of a show will relate to it at one point, or someone in their life will wholeheartedly support them, while at least another will turn out to be homophobic and will hate them. When parents are involved, they will either furiously throw their own child out of the home for this revelation, or reveal that they suspected all along, but were content to wait for their child to feel comfortable enough to admit it. Also usually includes a hate crime somewhere after the character comes out. It also might be a payoff for a character who has long been giving hints, in which case few are surprised. Several teen and young-adult centric stories will incorporate this with a Coming of Age Story. If the characters are an ensemble of LGBT+ characters, usually this plot is assigned to The Twink or the Lipstick Lesbian. If not, then this will almost always be a Gay Aesop. Related to Late Coming Out, which is for people who come out well into adulthood, and Coming Of Age Queer Romance, which is for people coming out when they're entering puberty. If a character comes out as a supernatural creature, see Have You Tried Not Being a Monster?. If a trans person has supernatural help coming out, see Supernaturally-Validated Trans Person. This trope has a strong overlap with Queer Establishing Moment in stories where it isn't the main focus of the work. For ways that characters can realize their identity, see Closet Key or LGBT Awakening. For cases where another character reveals the gay character's sexuality without their consent, see Forced Out of the Closet. |

In Ansem Retort, Marluxia, who has been stereotypically gay for the entire series finally comes out of the closet in 'season' 5. None of the other cast members are surprised and even the jerkass Zexion finds this reveal to be less interesting than watching Seinfeld reruns. | |

Sweet Blue Flowers: Fumi has her coming out toward her best friend Akira at their favorite hang-out spot, when she tells her that she's dating a senior from her all-girl high school. Akira is a bit surprised at first, but soon decides to support her friend fully. Luckily, there are no homophobes in this series, and the emphasis is more on the relationship between Akira and Fumi in light of this development. Played with as well; In what appears to be a more stereotypical form of the trope, Yasuko invites Fumi to meet her family, and states to them during dinner that they're dating. The response from Yasuko's sister, however, is for her to repeatedly ask whether Yasuko's really in love with Fumi, before delivering the Wham Line "So you're bisexual, Yasuko." Fumi had no idea that Yasuko wasn't a lesbian, and it leads to Yasuko breaking up with Fumi over her unrequited feelings for her old teacher, pointing out that Fumi has her own unrequited love to get over as well. Yasuko's family, it should be noted, were fine with it. |

Tripping Over You is a slice-of-life story about two boys and their relationship in a British boarding school. Milo has been outed rather early by the last girl he dumped and is quite comfortable with being out meanwhile, and his family doesn't make much of a fuss about it; Liam on the other hand takes a long time to come out in small steps to his roommate, then to a few more of their school friends, and finally to his strict, conservative father Eli. | |

BoJack Horseman has one in season 3 to Todd, who comes out as asexual in the season finale. When meeting a high school sweetheart, he realizes that he doesn't have any interest in being with her sexually, with all through the season the question on what exactly is he interested in being raised. He later actually uses the word asexual to describe himself. | |

Just in case there was anyone who hadn't figured it out yet, Karolina Dean of the Runaways came out in the two-part "Star-Crossed" arc. Unfortunately, someone at Marvel apparently felt that having an open lesbian on the team might scare away readers, so she was suddenly engaged to a genderfluid alien royal and put on a spaceship for several issues. It was not one of Marvel's braver moments. | |

Asteroid in Love: Part of Chapter 29, adopted as part of the ninth episode, deals with Moe's Love Confession towards Misa, and how she struggles with it. She does not openly declare her sexuality, but the fact she did that is implied to be known to some of the cast, if off-screen. By Chapter 32, some 6 weeks after in in-universe time, it appears that even Moe's Childhood Friend Mira is publicly saying Moe likes a girl within Moe's earshot, and yielded only positive responses. | |

They/Them (2020): Played with; Ash's classmates acknowledge that they identify as nonbinary, or at least trans, without Ash having to spell it out for them. However, Ash gets bullied to hell and back over it, and they're forcibly outed while reciting a poem about their identity. The culmination of the story is when Ash recites the poem in front of their whole class for real, letting them come out on their own terms this time, thus technically playing this trope straight. | |

Ironically, while The Power of Seven focuses on Harry Potter forming a harem of seven witches to save his life, one of the sub-plots of the fic is Ginny Weasley accepting that she's bisexual, as she comes to accept her genuine attraction to other women even as she remains in love with Harry, such as pleasuring Luna or realising that she had sexual fantasies about Fleur the preceding summer. | |

There, she meets Cay Rivvers, a free-spirited young casino employee-cum-sculptress who is openly lesbian—and strongly attracted to her. Vivian has to come to terms with her own sexuality before she can admit that she's equally attracted to Cay. | |

Averted by Scott Pilgrim, where most gay characters are already out by the time they are introduced. While bi-curiosity abounds (Ramona dated a girl for some time but eventually didn't really consider herself bisexual, Knives and Kim drunkenly made out but never mentioned it again), Stephen Stills is the only one who comes out, and it's done off-screen around Volume 5 without fanfare. | |

One major story element in Sunstone is that neither Ally nor Lisa considered themselves to be gay or bi before meeting each other, and have to come to terms with their mutual attraction along with their roles in the D/s part of their relationship. Ally eventually admits it to Alan ("I'm... gay." "Like a rainbow unicorn.") and a future strip teases at how Lisa will eventually introduce her girlfriend to her family. | |

The Australian movie Strange Bedfellows used this trope in an interesting fashion - two (straight) men living in a small country town registered as a gay couple in order to claim tax benefits, but then had to convince a tax inspector that they really were a couple. Thus, they have to go through all the travails of a Coming Out Story in a (typically gossip-driven) small town, without actually being gay in the first place. | |

Something of a watershed moment in For Better or for Worse. The storyline where Lawrence, one of Mike's friends, comes out as gay is pretty routine and by the numbers, but the fact remains that it occurred in a newspaper strip. It includes his foster father (briefly) throwing him out. The strip had been getting more serious in its arcing storylines for years, but this one drew furor like no other. While the character was still in high school, his being gay was often of note in every scene he was in from then on, such as the prom, but afterwards, he was just another family friend. | |

In Growing Up, Charles' route involves him coming to terms with his homosexuality and how it's affecting his political career in the student council. In high school, he comes out as gay to the Player Character when they catch him in crying in the bathroom after losing the elections. Then he comes over to their house to ask them for help in dealing with it because his sister caught him first and their father is homophobic. Thanks to the PC's support, Charles becomes brave enough to come out to his dad but still gets kicked out of the house, but he fights for LGBT+ rights in his good ending in the epilogue, looking to his sister for support (and also the PC if he marries him after years of on-again-off-again dating). | |

Gloriously handled in Deadpool 2. When Negasonic introduces her girlfriend to Wade, though he makes a snarky comment which she initially thinks is bigoted, he quickly assured them he's simply happy for the two of them. Just like if any other of his circle of friends got engaged. Being a lesbian isn't ANYTHING to be unhappy with (but trying to be an angry and edgy teen, is an issue-that's what the remark was really about, as he clarifies). Of course, since Wade is canonically pansexual, it makes sense he wouldn't care. | |

Whateley Universe: For a series focused heavily on gender transformations and LGBT+ issues, there are surprisingly few of these - it is more often a case of someone coming out as a mutant, instead, though the parallels are pretty blatant. Of those which have occurred, probably the most significant was Mega Girl coming out as a gender changeling to her boyfriend, Stronghold, at the insistence of the school's headmistress at that. It goes better than she ever hope it might, as he readily accepted her and would stand up for her against homophobic bullies not long afterwards. | |

Parodied, when Luke gets Simon a pamphlet called 'How To Come Out to Your Parents' when he becomes a vampire and tells him to adapt it to suit the situation. Neither Simon nor Clary is amused. |

Given a twist in Holly Black's fantasy novel Tithe, in which one of the characters literally came out to his oddball family and sci-fi geek mother by saying: "Mom, you know the forbidden love Spock has for Kirk?

So the Trauma is an alternate universe oneshot based off of Kim Possible: So The Drama that mixes this into the story. Kim realizes she's lesbian after falling for the New Transfer Student Erica at first sight. The two begin dating, but Erica is actually a synthodrone created by Drakken and Shego to act as a way to get Kim's guard down. Her first girlfriend being a robot makes the betrayal hurt Kim even more than it did in canon. | |

The Owl House: Subverted by Amity. Her falling in love with Luz hits all the usual beats: confusion, new feelings, etc., but because she comes from a Non-Heteronormative Society, she struggles with falling in love for the first time, rather than falling in love with another girl. On the other hand, Luz appears to have been fully secure in her sexuality prior to the events of the series, but doesn't officially come out until the season 3 episode "Thanks to Them" where she shows her mother a photo montage of her and her girlfriend Amity being romantic and ending with a picture that reads "Hi! I'm Bi!". Camila, for her part, is immediately accepting of both girls and cheerfully pulls them into a hug. |

X-Men Film Series: X2: X-Men United: Referenced when Mrs. Drake asks her son Bobby, "Have you tried... NOT being a mutant?" This has spawned its own trope. X-Men: First Class: Xavier accidentally outs McCoy as a mutant. Gloriously handled in Deadpool 2. When Negasonic introduces her girlfriend to Wade, though he makes a snarky comment which she initially thinks is bigoted, he quickly assured them he's simply happy for the two of them. Just like if any other of his circle of friends got engaged. Being a lesbian isn't ANYTHING to be unhappy with (but trying to be an angry and edgy teen, is an issue-that's what the remark was really about, as he clarifies). Of course, since Wade is canonically pansexual, it makes sense he wouldn't care. |

The Orion Conspiracy is one of the first, if not the first, games to break the gay taboo, and this game was released in 1995. Devlin is investigating the death of his son Danny. In the course of the investigation, he discovers that his son Danny was gay and was in a relationship (that involved love letters) with Kaufmann. Shortly after this, Kaufmann confronts Devlin. Kaufmann confirms that he and Danny are both gay. Both of them get into a shouting match about how Devlin drove away Danny and that Devlin is just some anti-gay bigot who is now thinking that Kaufmann murdered Danny over a lover's tiff. When left alone, Devlin is left feeling guilty over being a poor father for Danny, and that they had been so distant that he simply had no idea that Danny was gay. Devlin also feels that Danny could have told him about this, and that he would not have been angry with Danny for that. | |

The Great North plays with the trope in "Say It Again, Ham Adventure," as Ham's attempts at a "classic" coming-out story haven't run into the drama associated with such because he kept saying it casually and his family just kept accepting it. The Tobins play a visit to Beef's judgmental cousin Danica... who also turns out to be on the run for bank robbery, which results in the would-be coming out turning into a hostage situation. When's all said and done, Ham decides a casual, accepting non-event of a coming out was better. | |

Gunnerkrigg Court: Tomboy and Girly Girl Kat and Paz deal with their feelings for each other after the first girl is Mistaken for Gay (her known crushes have been for guys); after settling her feelings Kat then has to deal with coming out to her best friend Antimony. When the couple is spotted by said friend in a compromising position the friend runs away sending Kat into a panic. Turns out she wasn't afraid of Kat being gay (an offhand comment about dating a hot enough woman a year ago was enough for her to accept the possibility that Kat might not be hetero-normative), but that her best (and at times only) friend might leave her. Kat also comes out to an ancient spirit who warns her friend might not be as open-minded as he is; after coming out to Antimony, she worries their spirit pal might be too old-fashioned. The couple later go to a dance and no one seems to care. | |

One mission in Fable II has you helping a farmer (the one who earlier put you on the mission to arrest a bandit leader to avenge his wife's death) find a wife for his son. One problem: the son doesn't want to get married... to a woman. The mission ends with you helping the son find a potential boyfriend in the city and the son coming out to the farmer. The farmer is perfectly accepting and actually says he should've seen it earlier. Not bad for fantasy Renaissance/Colonial England. Depending on your chosen alignment, you can be a jerk and set the son up with a woman in spite of his confession. |

CollegeHumor did a skit called "When Coming Out Goes Better Than You Thought", in which Grant admits to being sexually attracted to men... and nobody bats an eye. He gets progressively more descriptive as he wants somebody to react poorly to justify his having been closeted for so long - and he gets his wish when he mentions that this attraction is due to him being bisexual, not gay, and a litany of "Pick a side!" comments are leveled at him. | |

In Sitting Ducks, the main characters are Bill the duck and Aldo the alligator, who find themselves in a friendship antagonized by both duck and gator-kind. The second-to-last episode "Duck Lover" involves Bill and Aldo's friendship being threatened and mocked by both Ducktown and Swampwood, and after seeking advice from the Jolly Llama, Aldo comes out about him and Bill's companionship to a group of alligators initiating a raid on Ducktown. Aldo accepts his identity as a predator befriending prey, while also asserting the fact he must be respected because he is the predator. | |

Renee Montoya, in an award-winning arc of Gotham Central, was involuntarily outed by Two-Face, who had become obsessed with her since their encounter in Batman: No Man's Land. He mailed pictures of her with her girlfriend to her family and to the Major Crimes Unit, the branch of the Gotham City Police Department where she worked. Captain Maggie Sawyer, Renee's shift commander at the MCU, was already out and attempted to help guide Renee through the initial tribulations, but Renee felt that their circumstances were not comparable. Ultimately, her parents disowned her, but she was able to find a modicum of acceptance from the cops she worked with. It's later implied that her parents — or her father at least — upon cooling down a bit have deeply regretted this disownment, but Renee is by this point understandably unwilling to have anything to do with them even if they are willing to mend fences. | |

Sorry, Bro: After she gets forcibly outed and weakly tries to deny her bisexuality, Nareh later admits she's really bisexual. Her cousin, mother and grandmother take it better than she expected (the latter two especially), accepting her. Nareh tells the whole world too through her post on Instagram. | |

A brief flashback interlude in Matchmaker shows when Mason and Kimmy come out to one another during 11th grade, him as gay and them as femmeby. It's almost a romantic moment, but with that Incompatible Orientation, it just gets Kimmy interested in hooking Mason up in the first place. Well, after they buy a game or two. | |

In the webcomic Boy Meets Boy, Mikhael is faced with the challenge of finding a good time to come out to a new group of friends. Finally, in the middle of a poker game, he awkwardly blurts out, "Hey, speaking of a straight... I'm not." His friends support him after the initial shock wears off. The shock itself has more to do with the incredibly awkward way he goes about it than anything else, and the story arc is more about Mikhael trying to overcome his social ineptitude. He actually panics not over the prospect of coming out in and of itself, but over the fact that he's made friends and doesn't know how to behave around them. Near the beginning of the strip, Mikhael makes Harley come out to his mom over the phone. He grudgingly does so, only to have her reveal that she knew all along, much to his surprise, and had even found him a suitor. |

Sara of Penny and Aggie undergoes a lengthy and heavily foreshadowed coming out process, sometimes played for comedy and at other times for drama. Lisa, noticing Sara's Transparent Closet (she's visibly frustrated by the rival title characters not acknowledging their supposed mutual attraction), touches her mock-seductively on the nose, freaking Sara out and leading her to settle the question by kissing Marshall. When she feels nothing as a result, she realizes she's gay. Subsequent storylines deal with her Ambiguously Gay makeover, being slanderously outed to the entire school body as an alleged rapist, eventually finding acceptance (and, in one case, a girlfriend) amongst her friends, and coming out to her mother. Penny, as well, has been (very) slowly coming to terms with her own bisexuality ever since a comment by a projecting Sara hit too close to home. As of late 2009, Aggie is in the midst of her own coming out process, although whether she's gay or bisexual is not yet clear. |

While her sexuality is news to the reader, the following two strips have Alex reveal that he already knew she was gay and so did their parents, since they had caught her in compromising positions with girls on multiple occasions. Up until that point she genuinely believed that the Blatant Lies she used to "explain" the situation each time had successfully kept them all in the dark. | |

Wandering Son, made by the same mangaka who makes Sweet Blue Flowers, has a Transgender variant, mixed with a Coming of Age Story. Both Nitori and Takatsuki are not reluctant to tell people of their wishes to be seen as a girl and a boy, though Takatsuki is more worrisome. The beginning of the manga began with them two meeting in fifth grade, and soon after telling each other of their wishes. Both of them feel the need to start dressing as the opposite sex around that time, but their parents either don't notice or think it's a confusing phase. Takatsuki's anxiety foreshadows her gender confusion as a teenager. In contrast, Nitori's arc ends with the implications that she'll transition now that she's off to college. | |

Angel of the Bat blends this with, of all things, Curiosity Causes Conversion: Cassandra Cain gets into Catholicism as an outsider and gets most of her information from Stephanie Brown. Knowing Cassandra doesn't understand symbolism well and wanting to be supportive, Stephanie unintentionally Bowdlerises the Bible in a few places, and homosexuality never comes up. Catholicism ends up making Cassandra far more comfortable in her own skin, and ends up awakening her to her queer side. By story's end, she is a practicing Catholic in a secret lesbian relationship. The writer admitted this may very well have been an Esoteric Happy Ending. | |

("Was it possible I was no longer interested in Fanni?") He then becomes convinced that his parents will reject him and he'll be thrown out of the house ("That was how it worked, wasn't it? I'd seen Play for Today.") As it turned out, his mother just blanks it out, although he suspects she's always known. | |

This is the plot of Out With Dad, with the twist that it's a coming out story for two people - Rose and Vanessa. Neither is out to everyone, but their families both know. Rose gets the supportive reaction from her friend Kenny and her dad, while Vanessa's mom is... less supportive. Near the end, Nathan tells Rose he's asexual as well, which is fine though she teases him by repeating one of his lines to her from her own coming out. | |

Waaaaaaaaaaaaay on the other end of the spectrum, you have Drawn Together, which featured Xandir's attempts to come out to his parents. He tried to practice by having two of his castmates roleplay as his parents. His first trial run at coming out was met with a reaction of "Uh, DUHHHH!" from his pseudo-parents, which causes Xandir to chastise them for not taking the roleplaying exercise seriously enough. They take things a bit more seriously than he may have hoped, as his second trial run led to an insanely convoluted turn of events parodying an after-school special, which killed half the cast (So what else is new?) and made little to no sense. Again, this isn't new. In the end, when he comes out to his real parents, what are their reactions? "Uh, DUHHHH!" Also: when he came out to his girlfriend over the phone, she angrily requested he never save her again, as she is bound and being lowered into a snake pit. Makes Princess Clara look downright tolerant. | |

When taken to gay rights festival by her transgender friends while still closeted, she ends up breaking down crying after seeing all the happy lesbian couples. There are also a few other, less obvious, Coming Out Stories: Mogumo learning about their non-binary identity and how to be openly enby, Suzu being in a Secret Relationship with his boyfriend and learning to be more open, and Mei learning that it's okay to be seen a trans girl instead of a Wholesome Crossdresser. |

Spoofed in Young Avengers. The character Wiccan is reluctantly trying to tell his parents he became a superhero, but they misunderstand and assume he's coming out with his boyfriend. They're supportive of his sexuality, but no word yet on his choice of profession since he didn't get a chance to say anything about it. Also Marvel planned on slowly hinting, then having a big reveal that Hulkling and Wiccan are gay and a couple, but readers figured it out long beforehand. Marvel then had it casually mentioned in one issue instead of making it a shocking reveal. | |

Hani and Ishu's Guide to Fake Dating: The story begins as Hani comes out as bisexual to her friends, who are less than enlightened about it, expressing skepticism of her bisexuality. She'd already come out to her parents, who are very accepting. Ishu much later also comes out to her parents as liking girls (without using any term for it). |
