This is something I& #39;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& #39;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& #39;ve flirted with doing this before but I tend to back off (wouldn& #39;t shock me if this never sees the light of day) because I& #39;ve worked in sports media for so long and... it isn& #39;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& #39;s their issue not yours
I interact with a lot of coaches. reporters & fantasy football people. I truly hope this doesn& #39;t change that. I like to think those who i consider friends will still be here.
I& #39;m hoping for the guys it doesn& #39;t make crap awkward.
It& #39;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& #39;s control, THIS is something I CAN control.
And jeez it& #39;s the sort of thing that can release weight you didn& #39;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& #39;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& #39;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& #39;s your choice.
I& #39;ve made mine. As terrified as I am, I& #39;m content in that.
