So, I'm going to my local Pride parade in July (gonna be in the parade with my drama group!! !!) and I really want to buy a lesbian flag (I'm a lesbian if you didn't guess) some of my family and friends who I haven't come out to yet will be there. My family is supportive but i'm nervous.
I guess this isn't really related to me being autistic but i need some help! Thanks!

For me (it may be different for you of course) I found it easier to come out indirectly, for example just by being at a pride parade which implies that you're queer without directly saying it. In my case it was when my mom and I were already talking about gender and I kinda squeezed it in as a side note.

Except that was apparently too subtle for her so then I had to make a big deal out of it anyway *sigh*
