"I think it's impossible to judge whether another person should come out. You just hope they will on their own time and their own terms"
- Billie Jean King
About this Quote
This quote by Billie Jean King speaks to the value of respecting the autonomy of others when it pertains to coming out. It is not our location to evaluate whether somebody needs to come out or not, as it is a deeply personal choice. We can just hope that they will come out on their own terms and in their own time. This is particularly true for members of the LGBTQ+ community, who often face discrimination and judgement when they come out. It is important to remember that everybody can come out when they feel comfy and safe to do so. We need to appreciate their decision and offer them with the assistance they require. Coming out is a difficult procedure and it is essential to appreciate the autonomy of others and supply them with the support they require.
