So many different euphemisms can be used for keeping a relationship or lifestyle away from the public eye. Be it away from one's parents, friends, co-workers, or society as a whole, there are some relationships or lifestyles that are better hidden.
Terms like In the closet to refer to homosexuality, in the broom closet to refer to the practice of witch craft, in the harem to refer to a polyamorous relationship, I, personally, have used coming out of the toy box. Some euphemisms are more witty then others.
Tiger_Eyes and I have had several conversations about coming out of the various places our relationships and lifestyle choices have placed us. We wonder, in jest, how the different conversations would go. The first one is easy, Her coming out of the broom closet. (She is a practicing Wiccan) Her father already knows, She doesn't hide it, just doesn't advertise it like others.
Next would be either of us coming out of the half closet (linnen closet maybe? lol). No one in our biological families knows about our true sexuality. It is a lot easier to be able to spend the night at one's girlfriend's house if no one knows the activity you are engaging in, lol. I think certian members of Her life would be a little less accepting of it then others, but then again, one never knows, it may be some people's dreams come true, lol. It might destroy Her image, but who knows, it might not.
How would the conversation go if all three of us were to come out of the harem? What would Master's family say or think if they knew He had two women in His life? What would their reaction be?
How about the toy box? Would all the families think we were sexual devients? What would the repricussions be? Master and I have more to think about then just ourselves in this one. We have a family to consider. So, what would that discussion consist of?
I know if Master requested it, I would come out of the linnen closet, out of the harem and out of the toy box, either to everyone or just a select few. I would do that. But who would Master ask me to come out to? Who would Master ask Tiger_Eyes to come out to? Who would He come out to?
