Closeted and in the closet are adjectives for lesbian , gay , bisexual , transgender , LGBT people who have not disclosed their sexual orientation or gender identity and aspects thereof, including sexual identity and sexual behavior. It can also be used to describe anyone who is hiding part of their identity because of social pressure.
