ROFL Yeah, my dad lacked imagination, but my open-minded mother left room for the possibility of me being gay. Her head canon was the most flexible, while my dad struggled with the idea for years due to being a hardcore Christian.
Meanwhile my dad outright said that he wouldn’t be surprised at all if I brought home a same sex partner, but really I’m just asexual ;)
Describing asexual or aromantic to older generations just does not compute for them.
Haha I didn’t even bother. It came out of the blue and I said “ok, well I’m not going to, but good to know you wouldn’t be surprised or care if I did.”
For being almost 80, he’s pretty chill about social issues. His gf is an “I got mine so fuck y’all” sort though..
Good people shouldn't let "got mine fuck you" people have their mine, especially if their mine is a relationship with a good person
