Are you out at work?
-
where in CA? SF seems to be the most liberated .. of course it is where the movie Milk is based
-
Yes
-
I choose not to talk about my private life at work but if certain colleagues that I feel comfortable with were to ask, I would not hesitate to tell them.
-
For me, I've been lucky to not be discriminated against for being gay. My attitude isn't of "coming out," but being married, it only really comes out in general conversation. Whether or not you know I'm gay, I'm gay. Unless you're interested, you really shouldn't care either way. I usually get some surprised looks of a mixed bag of "I didn't know you were gay" or "I didn't know you were out," I give them a confused look and say, "Duh," we laugh, and move on.
My previous job was in group homes and my current job is at a organization which is huge in the LGBT+ community, so it was almost assumed I my orientation wasn't straight.
-
Yes, I am. I'm lucky to be at an org that emphasizes diversity (of all sorts), and they do a good job of making it work in practice.
Like me. I am part of the company's LGBT+ ERG.
-
i'm out, but i also live in a place that is pretty welcoming, they even told me in the interview they prefer gays in our workplace lol
-
Of course. And I'm not the only one.
-
Yup… zero issues.

Yes, and no problem at all.
-
Yes, and I look at myself as an example of a gay person so if anyone has an issue they will slowly learn i'm just like everyone else.
-
no i'm not.
kind of scared of it -
I am, if people ask. But no one really asks
-
Not entirely.
But if asked I do not deny it that's for sure.
-
my thing now is i make not so subtle statements indicating to it like if they ask if i have a girlfriend i say "no, but i also dont have a boyfriend". because rarely do people can upfront ask you "hey are you gay?" in a professional work setting
