if you want funny i can recall my mom's reaction

among my favorites were
"well can't you just date guys?"
"well i mean statistically yeah but i'm also attracted to girls"
"أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم"

Aight well ok that's a reaction I suppose

BTW I read this as "I came out of my parents" and the quick scan read like a parody of confessing sins. I didn't mean to like suggest a serious thread should be funny or whatever

Acceptance is a concept beyond their ignorance.

That said tho, at least they know, maybe things will change in the future. Unlikely but.

love is love is love is love

the only argument that I would sort of be understanding of is if they were upset because they wanted grandchildren or something

which is also a shitty terrible argument and opinion but at least its logical enough (despite there being options like adoption etc..)

it doesnt have to necessarily be religious bigotry, it might also a culture thing, like I said above, some may just hold on to traditional values of a working father and caregiving mother, for example places like Japan and other Asian countries aren't accepting of homosexuality either even though theyre majority no religion and the 2nd most common is buddhism so idk, I don't know too much about buddhism but I would guess that a big part of it is to treat people with respect

In your case religion plays a part in it but I feel that there are many other factors as to why someone wouldn't accept their childs sexuality that transcend religion, and multiple different things can be a cause.

Proud of you, FG And happy that even with the reaction that you got, you're taking it well and secure enough in your own sexuality to know you're okay.

At least from a Taiwanese perspective, homophobia is overwhelmingly different across generational lines. I can't really speak for other Asian countries because I don't know too much, but in Taiwan the younger someone is the more their thinking is likely influenced by Western/American politics, and within young and urban populations homosexuality is widely accepted with the only dissent coming from religious groups. I think my generation (early 20s) is pretty similar to people in North America, except that religious groups in Taiwan tend to be more conservative than North American religious groups, which have a lot of people who don't see a conflict between homosexuality and faith. However, the more rural and older your population is in Taiwan, there's a TON of resistance mainly just because "it's gross." And the vast majority of those who resist pro-LGBTQ legislation are elderly, in part because Taiwan and a lot of other East Asian countries are aging populations.

Sorry for getting a little political in this thread, though. This could be an interesting topic to have in another thread than this one~

but in all seriousness, I'm really proud of you Funny, as a straight male I could only imagine the courage it takes to have that sort of conversation with anyone, let alone mom and dad.

If your parents can't accept you for something as simple as your sexual preferences then it sounds like you're better off and it'll be their loss in the end.

I can very much relate to you funnygurl. When I came out to my mum she couldn't even look at me. Still cant 8 years later. Jokes on her though because I'm happy with my wife, and my mum wont be able to meet her.
