There are many people across the world who would be disappointed in their kid (even though it's not his kid) who would be disappointed in the child's choices. And you're calling all of those people bigots. Therefore, being an "indecent" human because you don't empathize with them.

Why do you empathize more with the teen's feelings than the father's? Because you're trying to take some ambiguous moral high ground. That is all...

I’m not sure if you’re purposely obtuse, or really can’t comprehend intention and feeling in someone’s writing. Are you trying to convince yourself that anything about his post suggests that he is just being decent when he says “Either way I have to worry about this kid smelling my underwear.” (I’m betting that his stench is such that he can be smelled from a distance, but whatever.)

I can empathize with a child who is rejected for being who he is.

No, I'm calling you out for doing the same thing as he is.

See, there's a stance one can take where I can disagree with both the kid's choices and the stepfather's reaction. But I won't sit here and act like I'm standing up for morality or decency and then do the exact same thing you are all piling on the step-dad for. His reaction to something he doesn't agree with is just as valid as your disagreeing with his reaction. Doesn't make you better than him because you would have done something different.

Yet you lose all empathy because you disagree with someone for being themself and feeling how they feel. You're a hypocrite. Plain and simple.
