  • outing

    disclosure by a third party of a person's homosexuality, without their prior consent. (Larousse, 2020)

    Unlike the voluntary and personal act of coming out, outing refers to the act of revealing that a person is homosexual without their consent. For the "outraged" person, the act is of great violence, which can expose and weaken him. (SOS Homophobie, 2020)
