This is something I've really only narrowed down in the last year. Previously - like six years or so ago - I finally came to grips with - i thought- being Bi
And it fit for quite a while until it didn't.

Some people feel Bi and Pan are the same thing and....maybe? To me, Bi is about two genders. Pan, to me, is about a spectrum of attraction which includes Non Binary, trans and more.
Bi and Pan are good friends though, so to speak, and so one goes well with the other i suppose.
All I can speak to is what rhey mean to me, YMMV.

I've flirted with doing this before but I tend to back off (wouldn't shock me if this never sees the light of day) because I've worked in sports media for so long and... it isn't always the most welcoming space.
And shit, I could pass! So for the most part I just did that.
Then I started shifting to more TTRPG stuff and... its a very different space. Not perfect- some of its issues are exactly the same as sports.
But I guess I just had more examples of people living their truth

Those folx - and i hope and think they know who they are - have led me to realize that you can live your life honestly and if people walk away because of who you are (barring you just being an asshole) that's their issue not yours
I interact with a lot of coaches. reporters & fantasy football people. I truly hope this doesn't change that. I like to think those who i consider friends will still be here.
I'm hoping for the guys it doesn't make crap awkward.
It's what stops me every time I start to do this.

But the truth is, in a year that has been one disaster after another, personally, professionally & *gestures at world* - one thats been out of everyone's control, THIS is something I CAN control.
And jeez it's the sort of thing that can release weight you didn't know you carried.

The other thing is - more and more I meet people who just discovering their queerness. And they are worried, scared, awkward as hell & not sure if who they are is ok.
Maybe I'm a narcissist but I feel like being out honestly will help others accept themselves for who they are.

Representation is important. Maybe I can be that person for someone like many in the TTRPG space have been for me. I have a small platform between fantasy and @Wizards_Lizards - i should use it (its not as tho im shy about supporting issues of race, sexuality or gender as it is)
Anyway.
This is me. In reality it doesn't change a thing. Im still the same guy you followed or knew before you read this thread.
You just know more about me now.
What you do about it - that's your choice.
I've made mine. As terrified as I am, I'm content in that.
