Answer to Question 2

Answer: 1, 2
Explanation: 1. The lesbian, bisexual, or transgender woman who does not live her identity openly must deal with the fear that someone will discover who she really is. Although these women grieve the loss of hiding who they are, the grief is not sanctioned by society and is another source of hidden stress. Lesbians or bisexual women may internalize negative social attitudes to their sexual identities, leading to greater risk of suicide. Coming out causes contradictory feelings of excitement and relief.
