@pinesky @thethinktanker I hate that argument so much because it's like the same as equating existing as gay to some kind of kink thing/adult sexual content. smh

@sanspoint @masklayer @pinesky@mastodon.social I also got hit with, "Well if you're bi and married to a woman, why bother coming out and mentioning it at all? Couldn't you just please hide it and never tell anyone we know ever?" from my parents when I came out and it still hurts. My dad literally asked me to never tell my grandparents because, and I quote, "That's not a conversation that I really want to have with my mom and dad." Thanks, dad.

@thethinktanker @sanspoint @pinesky Oh my parents said that too about not telling other family members. oops sorry did it anyway
