    Honestly, I think his dad is just a giant abusive piece of shit, who would just use any excuse to beat the shit out of his son.

    Homophobe father deserves a Nobel Prize if his proposed sexuality-based time dilation is reproducible under lab conditions.

      Can the world move to FST until drumph, poutine, and bibi are in hell? That would be sweet. We can change back after, or not, both are good.

        Warts will only come back unless you fix the root cause with the proper medical treatment. In this case, 9 out of 10 doctors recommend lead injection therapy.

    People like Anon‘s dad are the reason why earth is still such a backward hillbilly place. Irrational disdain for harmless things like queerness, meanwhile actual problems and crimes like global warming, PFAS usage, genocide and corruption from top government officials are being ignored.

    Fun fact: Humans are less socially intelligent than apes.

        I have two half-Thai cousins (Floridians, naturally) whose mother was a Thai immigrant, and they love to bitch about immigrants (as does my white uncle, who brought this Thai immigrant to the US from Thailand). Neither looks Thai, but one looks generically Central American and the other looks Japanese and they got abused growing up for that. It’s really wild to me how this gave them no empathy at all for the shit immigrants have to endure; instead they do their best to be caricatures of white people.

      Just to have an ackshoolly moment: humans are apes. If you mean humans are less socially intelligent than gorillas, male gorillas tend to do stuff like killing all the children fathered by the previous silverback. Human stepfathers at least sometimes don’t do that.

        I meant apes as in great apes, but you‘re right, humans are included in the Hominidae superfamily. Gorillas almost only kill each other‘s children when the silverback dies and the group dissolves. Mostly because food becomes scarce then.

        Meanwhile I have seen human parents neglect their children and steal their allowance to try and win a rare Labubu doll. So yeah I‘d argue that as a species, the apes still got their shit together better than humans. (Except chimpanzees obv.)

          Then again, gorillas don’t have a concept of money or labubu dolls. Basically, our society gives more opportunities to fuck up.

    If you’re in a situation like anon, get out of there as soon as you can. Always remember these moments. When your dad gets old and needs your help, tell him “only f*****s need their sons to do stuff for them”.

        Ive been called a homophonic idiot for saying this, but people who truly believe its a choice surely must be repressed bisexuals.

        Im completely hetero, I know its not a choice because I don’t have the choice to go gay. I would have done really well as a gay too, ive had so many more men hitting on me than women. If I was bisexual, I would have the option to “go gay”, and would have been able to make that choice.

          I find it weird that people care whether it’s a choice or not (for the record, I don’t think sexuality is a choice, at least not usually). Is it suddenly OK to discriminate against people because of choices they make? Like which kind of car they drive or which music they listen to?

        I don’t know exactly what he thinks or how his framework would be impacted by insinuating the “weakness” is from his genes. 🤷

    I haven’t been called a faggot before, but when I’ve been insulted in this sort of casual, out-of-nowhere way, I’ve found that responding with “go fuck yourself” in a calm tone of voice and then continuing my conversation to be effective.

    I’m not saying you should break your dad’s nose but standing up to him like the kind of (toxic?) man he would accept would probably change his attitude.
