My sister in law is a lesbian. Her parents are very traditional and were pretty upset about it at first, but they are both career women that have their shite together. So they got over it, and now we are one big happy family.

Does anyone teach their kids that it's not ok to be gay anymore? Or am I the only one?

I believe having them grow up in a home with 2 parents where men do manly things and women do womanly things helps as well

Not family in the blood related sense of the word, but one of my best friends.

"Hey Shoebang, I have something to tell you."

"yeah?"

"I'm gay"

"I know"

"What? Who told you?"

"No one, I have known since we were like 14 dude."

"That obvious?"

"yeah, no big deal, still love ya. Let's go get another beer."

Distant cousin of mine was gay, became pretty successful and ended up dating one of the dudes from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. We had a family reunion one year, and while most people there were pretty devout old school Catholics, everyone just thought it was a cool that a celebrity showed up

As far as gays from super religious families go, that guy was crushing it

No, don’t think so. Think that generation is behind us. It’s actually pretty awesome how “open minded and non-judgemental” these young children are today. Sometimes I say things in front of my children that aren’t even racist and they start lecturing me.

pan-sexual non-binary


To take it in reverse order, non-binary refers to their gender identity, specifically that they don’t really have one. They don’t fit within the male/female binary. Non-binaries usually look and act androgynous.

Pan-sexual is the largest sexual umbrella. Not only are they attracted to both sexes, but they are attracted to all genders. For example, a bisexual might not be attracted to a gender non-binary, a transgender, etc. Pans are.

Don’t kill the messenger

To actually address the OP: I have a younger cousin who came out as a lesbian a few years ago. The family collectively lost its shite, accused her of tearing the family apart, etc.

Now it's no big deal.

No, but just as earthshaking, a niece married a fundamentalist Christian. Converted.
Was astonishing at the time. Family of Jews, most practice eastern or new age spiritual processes.

Now 20 years later, divorced, no apparent interest in any religion, family, her own children or spiritual life.

Already had that discussion. Told her if any one of em turns up with the gay, I’m suing her arse for nondisclosure. I didn’t find out how rampant it was until after we were married.

One of my sisters is a Democrat. Really shocked most of the family. I don't think my mom has gotten over it to date.
