Does everyone know that you can’t do anything about how you’re family thinks? The holidays are the worst for bringing all of this stuff into the open. It’s not because you’re parents are cis. It’s because they’re a different generation. Your children will feel the same regardless of how progressive you are. If you don’t like it, leave. You aren’t a hostage.
when a cishet comments on your post
do gays only ever talk about being gay?? like in my family no one asks about “future husbands” or “the gays” or any specifically heteronormative thing. we talk about everyday life and things people do: jobs, family, friends, kids. none of these things are exclusive to just straight people. you make it seem like people just go arounds asking about your sex life when honestly no one fucking cares. oh and if you havent come out to your family yet, why is it wrong to ask if you have a “boyfriend” or whatever? they are taking an interest in your life and want you to be happy but you make it seem like a bad thing but you are the one who hasnt informed them of what makes you happy.
when the cishets keep leaving their stupid unnecessary comments on your posts
“everyday life and things people do: jobs, family, friends, kids”
this just in, the gays don’t experience everyday life
also “you are the one who hasnt informed them of what makes you happy”
yikes, thanks for guilt-tripping me like its my fault that i havent come out to my homophobic parents and family yet
Well, to be fair, that IS on you. Like your parents have probably told you at some point, they can’t read your minds.
People are actually more accepting of homosexuality as a whole in this day and age than you might think. If you told them, they may or may not like it, but that doesn’t mean they’ll stop loving and supporting you.
You just gotta take that chance.
when the cishets think they know more about homophobia than you do
Oh, the Straights™
“you gotta take that chance” do you like, actually comprehend how much of a “chance” that is? “you gotta take the chance of being disowned and thrown out of your home” yeah no thanks???
