Non-inclusive language
editThis article keeps making reference to "gay and lesbian" despite presenting the holiday as an LGBT event, which excludes bisexuals and other non-monosexuals, as well as trans people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.96.162.224 (talk) 07:36, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
More recent sources needed
editI've added a couple of sources to evidence the international dimension of this day; a very quick Google search turned up very little in the way of reliable sources from outside America more recent than 2013, and one (The Irish Examiner, from this year) looks to have garnered its info from this very article. If anyone can update it with something more contemporary that would be great. ~ Maltrópa loquace 23:42, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
"National" implies a specific country
editThis article is exclusively about a United States topic, but is written as if the United States were the only country. I propose renaming the article to National Coming Out Day (United States), and/or re-writing the article introduction from a global perspective, giving the appropriate context about which in the nation in question Fibre H.
