Actor/entrepreneur Troy McQueer presents: "Your Guide to the World Outside", a handy self-help novella to provide LGBTTQ youth and queers of all ages some guidance out of the tricky psychological foxhole that is The Closet. In this entertaining and informative commercial presentation, we show you what to expect when coming out, and offer some do's—and don'ts—for your friends and family.
"Your Guide to the World Outside" was created by the members of Peer Project for Youth (PPY), a community program for queer youth and teens run out of the Winnipeg-based LGBTTQ organization Rainbow Resource Centre (RRC).
Thanks to everyone in this movie and everyone who made it possible! Major special thanks go to Sarah K. Granke, for getting everything and all of us together, for allowing me to co-direct and edit, and waiting so patiently for me to finish editing it! (Sorry again for the delay) And thanks of course to our fabulous stars: Jill, Jade, Alysa, Ashton, Ari, Mark (who has a YouTube channel you should check out, youtube.com/FTMark1) and the next Vince from Shamwow, Sienna!

Very funny. What's up with the sketchy video quality, though? Was that deliberate?
