• Growing Up Queer: Issues Facing Young Australians Who Are Gender Variant and Sexuality Diverse (2014, background): “Most literature increasingly recognises the act of ‘coming out’ as a process – often a strategic one (Orne, 2011) – rather than a moment, varying in differing social contexts and across relationships.”
• Getting “Bi” in the Family: Bisexual People's Disclosure Experiences (2015, background): “Although coming out is often conceptualized as a moment of disclosure (e.g., " I came out to my parents last weekend " ), the scholarly literature indicates that it is a process (Denes & Afifi, 2014; Orne, 2011; Rust, 1993).”
