Hi, I'm a queer person, and I'd like to take a second to explain to you why people get angry over the use of coming out.

Consider the fact that for asexual people, if they *come out* as asexual, they get strange looks, asshole comments, questions on if they are all right and don't need help with a medical arousal issue.

Know what lgbt people have historically received and even often do receive today? Being thrown out, domestic violence, losing friends, being killed, prayers for their souls, and sometimes worse. It's true that these days, things are getting better in many areas and LGBT youth who come out to their families are receiving less violently negative reactions, but it doesn't change the high amount of homeless LGBT youth due to coming out or being outed, and the amount of LGBT teens who are bullied to the point of suicide or murdered.

So please, do not pretend that stating that you (general you, not you personally) are not interested in sex or do not experience sexual attraction/desire for sex is anywhere near coming out, and how coming out is for LGBT folk.
