Abstract	This hermeneutic phenomenological study explores the lived experiences of eight openly gay undergraduate men involved in elected student government. While all of the men in this study identified with coming out, there were differences in their experiences with being out. As themes illuminated visibility, internalized homophobia, expectations of working harder than their peers, and a sentiment that they "just so happen to be gay," this study affirms the idea that there is not one single story of what it means to be gay or elected (or gay and elected). (As Provided).
