Shoutout to closeted systems!
Whether online or in person, sometimes systems have to keep their plurality a secret in order to keep themselves safe. This post is for those systems!
Shoutout to systems who are out online, but not in real life, or who are out in real life, but not in person!
Shoutout to closeted systems who have to constantly mask!
Shoutout to closeted systems who are only out about their system to one or two people!
Shoutout to closeted systems who have to keep their system a secret in order to keep themselves safe!
Shoutout to systems who had come out in the past, but for any reason had to go back into the closet!
Shoutout to headmates who work hard to keep their system stealthy, discreet, and under the radar!
Shoutout to systems who struggle with denial or fear of faking because they can’t safely be out as a system!
Shoutout to systems who feel bad because others around them can be open about plurality, but they themselves have to stay closeted!
Being in the closet doesn’t mean you’re not plural or not a system! Closeted systems are just as valid as any other system, and you are still a vital and important member of the plural community! Whether you have to keep your plurality a secret from just a few people in your life or everyone around you, we want you to know that you’re not alone, we see you, and we’re rooting for you!
Regardless of why your system has to remain closeted, please know that your plurality is real, and your life and the lives of your headmates have value! We’re wishing for each of you a future where you can be yourselves and take pride in your plurality! Until then, though, please take care of each other and treat yourselves with kindness!
