@pinesky@mastodon.social "Mom," I said, "You're straight, right? You're attracted to men?"
"Yes," she replied.
"And are you able to control yourself and not cheat on dad whenever you see an attractive man?"
"Of course I am," she said.
"It's the same with me."
There was an awkward silence.
"I'm sure you're right," she finally said, "But there's a lot of promiscuity in the Gay Community, and it must be hard having feelings you can't satisfy."
I sighed and shook my head. "You're not listening."
