"I told her what it means to me, why I like it as a catch-all term, how it feels like saying not straight and none of your business.""For some members of my family, this essay may be me coming out to them, if they read it. I've heard that coming out never ends, which sounds exhausting," Dacus continued. "Maybe I instinctively understood that coming out would never end and the fear of exhaustion is what kept me from beginning for so long. But there is also the exhaustion of ignoring yourself."That same month, Dacus discussed the various labels for her sexuality with The New York Times."Gay is the overarching word, queer is the better overarching word and more specifically bisexual or pansexual," she said.
