outing myself

質問

I'm an Asian closeted Christian bi girl who is a freshman at a fairly conservative Christian high school. If you want some examples of how far my school leans right, our superintendent gave a speech during one of our weekly assemblies two years ago about how if you're queer, he "still loves you" but you'll have to "find a new school." In a word, yikes.

To add to that Gordian Knot, a lot of my fellow freshmen keep joking that I'm a lesbian and I can't quite correct them without outing myself.

outing myselfとはどのような意味でしょうか？よろしくお願いします

outing myselfとはどのような意味でしょうか？

out の他動詞でここの使い方は、さしずめ２の「外に出す」でしょう。

　ただ「自分自身を（学校の）外に出すほかないわね」と言う表の意味と、５番目の俗語の「殺す」と言う「自殺しかない」と言う裏もチラリと見せています。

お礼

ご回答ありがとうございます
