Which is Worse For a Parent?

[MetaMario]

It wouldn't make any difference whether the son was gay or not. My only concern would be the daughter.

Yeah, same here, but some parents are crazy like that.

Nice topic by the nigga from the land of queerophiles.

NO! I'm an optimist!

Well let me tell you that's not a very good place to be an optimist.

Everytime I have faith in humanity, even individual humans, I have that faith ran straight into the ground. It's just not worth it anymore.

I agree with chris here, option 2 it is.

Perhaps you just put your faith in the wrong people?

[StrawHatRican]

Ah, that's true.

But even THAT wouldn't be the worst for a parent.

True... I can think of about 100 things that would be worse than "Lulz I'm Gay" or "Lulz I have sex for teh munnies".

Much much worse.

[SMUDGE]

I choose option C.

Son's situation is something that can't be changed or helped it's something you have to accept, it leaves you powerless to take any steps to do anything to change it.

Son's situation isn't "Bad" in the first place. Doesn't need to be changed.

Which turns out being everybody? My family and friends alike.

Exactly what I was thinking when I read that post. Why in the world does it need to be changed in the first place?

Son's situation isn't "Bad" in the first place. Doesn't need to be changed.

I didn't want to post twice but clearly you only read the tl;dr version. I specify tried to state that there was nothing to change.

That in itself is what makes it worse for me, since there is nothing to fight against only acceptance.

Please don't try and make me look bad over something I already agree with you on.

Basically, what it comes down to is I don't like being in a position of not being able to help. One side I can help the other side I can't do anything but accept.

I don't like losing without a fight of some type. I guess I'm a minority in this case, that is all.

He's not going to bother replying since he is wrong anyway and is afraid to be raped Shandian-style.

[RoboBlue]

That's true, but there are things people do to try to change gay people, like those religious camps. It's good that he didn't acknowledge those as an option. :)

[ctarlong910]

He did reply, right above you in fact.

[StrawHatRican]

I never did get that whole... "imma convert you straight" mentality.

How does one gain that track of thought to begin with is beyond me...

[RoboBlue]

It stems from the idea that being gay is a sin, and therefore is behavioral.

The question was "Which is Worse".

If it doesn't need to be changed, there shouldn't be a problem for the parent to feel they need to "Fight against".

You don't "Fight" against something that has no downside and is unchangeable.

If you see something worth "Fighting" to "Change", then that pretty much says there is something "Wrong" there that needs to be "Changed".

I know... but why bother trying to change it?

I was raised Protestant and we NEVER once even attempted to "turn someone" straight.

We just accepted it and moved on.

I have a hard time believing that the majority are against homosexuality because it's a 'sin'. I seriously do. A lot of the time the Bible is USED as a crutch to make homophobia look justified in society. Nobody questions a "religious belief".

I know there are exceptions, but I seriously doubt that the MAJORITY really is against homosexuality because their Bible tells them so.
