#ComingOutDay<\/b><\/h2>\n

October 11th is the\u00a0<\/span><\/span>G<\/span><\/span>day\u00a0<\/span><\/span>World<\/span><\/span>\u00a0dedicated to the\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Coming Out<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/strong>, an occasion to celebrate the identities of all<\/span><\/span>*<\/span><\/span>. The\u00a0<\/span><\/span>c<\/span><\/span>oming\u00a0<\/span><\/span>or<\/span><\/span>ut is a delicate moment\u00a0<\/span><\/span>which concerns\u00a0<\/span><\/span>is\u00a0<\/span><\/span>the sphere<\/span><\/span>\u00a0relational\u00a0<\/span><\/span>be that one<\/span><\/span>\u00a0staff.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>S<\/span><\/span>above all, it continually recurs in different situations: at home, in the con<\/span><\/span>text<\/span><\/span>\u00a0extended family (relatives, grandmothers and grandfathers, and<\/span><\/span>cc<\/span><\/span>), at school,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>with friends<\/span><\/span>, no<\/span><\/span>llo<\/span><\/span>\u00a0sport,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>In the workplace. Despite the difficulties one may encounter in "coming out" and declaring one's sexual orientation or gender identity, coming out is an important moment in one's life, starting with one's relationship with oneself.<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This year,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>with our campaign,<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>We want to focus on the emotions and feelings you may experience after coming out. <\/span><\/span>The # campaign<\/span><\/span>ComingOutDay<\/span><\/span>\u00a0it does not limit itself to describing a single episode of externalization, but\u00a0<\/span><\/span>wants to draw attention to how our lives can change after we decide to come out of the closet.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Let's remember, however, that coming out is a deeply personal moment that shouldn't be underestimated. There are times and circumstances when it can be less scary to reveal your identity, while others feel impossible. Life isn't a competition; there's no right time to come out.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0And if we have any difficulties, there is always someone willing to listen to us and support us.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
