The outing

One of my fav episodes - not that there is anything wrong with it, not at all - but I never got the title. Anyone?

TIA.

george and jerry were outed - but they were never in!

Is that a word/phrase from the American context? I don't understand it here (Singapore).

A common phrase in the US, it refers to homosexuals coming "out of the closet". Making themselves known as homosexuals.

There are so many idioms in this country that I don't know how a foreign born person can ever comprehend us. There might be something useful on this list for future reference. But I didn't even try to find this one.

Thanks, I was thinking, they weren't going anywhere in the episode ;)

What, if anything, do "they" "come out of" in Singapore?

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Meaning that if you're not openly gay, you are in the closet. Coming out of the closet would be outing.

More to the point of the perrin's query, someone revealing their own homosexuality is, as you say, "coming out of the closet", but when someone else exposes your homosexuality, they have "outed" you, or you have been "outed", the "out", of course, being derived from "coming out."

Ah I see, I have heard of coming out of the closet, just not the derivative. Thanks.

Did you hear about the gay midget?

He came out of the cupboard.

It's little people. Got it?
