 今天学的词组是come out of closet。 Closet是壁橱,秘室,小房间。 走出壁橱和秘室,引申的意思就是公开真相,不再保守秘密。比如虽然美国法律禁止重婚和多配偶制,但仍有人秘密实行一夫多妻和一妻多夫。不过最近有报道说, 多配偶论者公开呼吁社会尊重他们的选择权。 


也就是说,polygamists are coming out of the closet -- 多配偶论者不再隐藏他们的身份和主张。还比如, 美国纽约市每年一次的同性恋者大游行证明,随着社会对同性恋的歧视减少,越来越多的人敢于公开他们的同性恋身份了 -- "more and more homosexuals are coming out of the closet." 今天学的词组是come out of the closet..
