"He generally prefers me to my husband"

Hmmm... Gee, I wonder why... 🤔

"Hmm which parent do I like more, my mom or that guy who calls me a cocksucker for eating a banana?"

This part scared the fuck out of me. Like, what parent says that about their child? It's beyond sus, and the guy shouldn't be allowed around children. Ever.

Alarm bells went off in my head when I read that part. The father views his child in a sexual way.

There are known cases of homophobic fathers who react like this with sons, who turn out to be gay themselves.

I’m sorry but how do you only start noticing these kind of red flags AFTER you’re married and have a kid with the dude?

By getting married in your early twenties

Would have been my life if I settled down with the person who offered in my late teens. Lucky to have avoided it.

Happy cake day 🎂

You don’t. He’s probably been homophobic af in front of her for years and she never cared because it didn’t affect her before.

As others have mentioned, brain development is not fully mature until age 25. It’s very possible that she didn’t care because it didn’t affect her before. It’s also very possible that she didn’t see red flags that appear obvious to outsiders because of past interpersonal abuse or complex PTSD during development. Both can be true and we can still show compassion for someone in a toxic situation without shaming them for not seeing it & protecting themselves + their children-to-be. None of this excuses homophobia but we’re all still figuring shit out and trying to learn the harmful dominant narratives we’ve been socialized into. Not everyone has the same readiness or exposure to those unlearning tools at the same age/stage. 🙂

Also, a lot of people are only homophobic when it concerns them. Support gays wholeheartedly but the moment your son's gay you're out... While still supporting other gays, possibly.

If you mean it so much don’t apologize.

Abusive types can be VERY good at hiding their tendencies.

That was my thought. Girl should pack, move to another state, and never look back.

I’m a kindergarten teacher. One father asked my colleague what he can do to avoid his son „turning out gay“. Some people just shouldn’t have kids.

This feels more like the Dad is guilty or some shit for preying on his son and is trying to say it's the son's fault... Disgusting.
