let’s play a game called “who is more normal abt me being gay” is it my dad, who spent most of his life growing up on a farm in the midwest w/ a likely conservative family (if the fb posts are anything to go by) and i have no idea if he knew any gay people, or my mom, who was a hairdresser in the 80s and spent most of her 20s going to gay bars

the answer will in fact surprise you

#this is mostly be being sarcastic and also reductive bc at the end of the day where someone grew up isn’t an immediate indicator #of their views #this is more so a reflection of today’s grocery store chat with my dad #being abt how i am my mom’s token gay kid #and now i know i am not crazy bc my cishet dad sees it too #but also it’s kinda funny bc my dad knows that i have a type like most people #meanwhile my mom is the equivalent of ‘oh ur gay???? u will love my other gay friend’
