while reading these stories, it is important to keep in mind - that the world is not perfect.  people are not perfect.  some stories may (although rarely) contain sexually explicit material.  by the same token, some stories may offend us in other ways.  (ie. human nature and behavior)
we at coming-out? feel it is important to portray these experiences in an un-edited format.  please use your own discretion while reading this material.  also, for those of you who feel compelled to submitting your own stories - be aware that this is NOT a pornographic web site, and we will always use our own common sense while considering submissions.
