Seriously, the constant 'Rouge' 'Rogue' mix-up is almost as grating as the 'Lucious' 'Lucius' confusion in Harry Potter fandom. Grr . . . . *fumes*
In other news . . . I've been wondering, lately. (Nothing good ever comes of that! Oh no!) Exactly what does 'in the broom closet' mean? Does it mean not out to anybody? Or just to family? Maybe out to friends, or just a few friends, and not your family. Does it mean being out to everyone but your family?
I think it differs for most people. I had a friend in the seventh grade (first Wiccan I ever met, actually) that considered herself 'partially closeted' because no-one on her dad's side of the family knew she and her mom and dad were Wiccan. She never hid it at school or anything, though.
So what's the line? There can't be one for everbody, because no-one has the same life as someone else. I might not be considered in the closet by some - I have friends that know, after all, and I don't lock up any of my books, aside from my BoS and dream journal.(Which I very rarely remember to use anyway, but that's beside the point.) Heck, a couple people in my Chorus class know, just because I wasn't thinking and was talking openly with a friend about Beltane.(Can't wait for the fifth! It would have been nice to celebrate it yesterday, but little sisters are a pain and I couldn't get away. At least the astrological date is on a Saturday this year. Yay!)
Just something to think on.
