So...
there's this mom who recently posted how proud she was that her son came out as homosexual on Facebook. Really?
For all intents and purposes, I would think a boy who has admitted to homosexually already has certain urges. These are usually circumstances to which a parent would rather drive off a very high cliff than would want to believe exists in their child. Let alone discuss it with the general public. I get the feeling sometimes, that when a parent does this, it almost seems like they feel they've made a mistake somehow. But...I don't think parents should make ANY statements about their child's sex life.
Two factors come to mind...1) Not everyone will accept this and therefore, you've now put to the forefront future, irreparable insult fodder. 2) who cares what your kid's into?
Seriously, my folks rarely knew I even liked Transformers or G.I. Joes. I think their logic was that the more they figured out what I liked, the more interest they would have to fake. So why would they even remotely want to know about my sex life? I mean, the first time my mom even had "the talk" with me was...pretty much non-existent. It was to the extent of "Hey...it's cool to be friends with girls...but...y'know...friendship is friendship." Forget that this Mom who professed her unconditional love to her son might as well draw the guy a diagram on how a penis enters a butt. Or maybe should prepare him better for years of ridicule.
To be fair, I get what she's doing. She knows by her kid proclaiming that he's bisexual, she's telling him that he should feel no shame in her eyes. I venture to guess that since he made that statement, it wasn't necessarily trying to keep it a secret to her. Or relatives. I'm sure grammy and grandpa wants to know what color scarf to knit this year for Christmas (hint: pink). Unless, they aren't "friended" in which case, he should burn in Hell. Or call them every once in a while to thank them for the $10 they send for birthdays.
I guess the bigger question is Who Fucking Cares? I'm straight...and love pussy (circa 1970's bush), don't need to post it on Facebook for all to see. There's better places more discreet. Bathroom stalls seem to have lost their place in these matters, it seems.
