Date: 2011-05-02 02:13 am (UTC)I think her question was mostly driven by her unawareness of such things. I guess the world (in general) is more... concerned, shall we say, on LGBT that most people don't know what pansexuality (as an example) is. That said, I don't know who you are, who she is, and what your relationship is like, so I suppose I can't really help much with that - although I would say one thing: it's okay to be offended and hurt with what she said, even if it wasn't directed at you.
Case in point: I'm friends with a girl who suffers from various EDs, and it bothers me when someone says, "But she's not even thin, are you sure she has bulimia?", even if it's not directed at me. I guess what I'm trying to say is... people don't understand. Some of them don't try to understand and some don't even want to. I'm so all over the place and am probably going in circles, but I hope you have someone who really truly does understand you, or at least won't judge you, sexual orientation or any other matter. It means a lot to have support, even if it's just one person.
Parents are a whole different issue. It's a sensitive one for me, especially regarding sexual orientation, because I am way more open-minded than they are. I guess it might just be a generational difference because such things were less... accepted in their era? Maybe you can wait a little, expose him to it little by little before you really come out. I don't think it's healthy to hide who you are from the people close to you, and it may come to hurt you in the long run.
I'm really, really, really sorry I've only replied now, and now that I have, that I can't help much at all. But know that if you ever need a place to vent, anonymously or not, I'll always be here. I won't judge. Promise.
I hope things get better for you ♥
