Why Parents Reject Their Gay Children

I believe that just because something become legal or normalized doesn’t make it okay or widely accepted. I don’t care how many laws change, how many non-profit LGBT organization are created — some people are not going to accept their own gay children.

They made laws to outlaw racism and discrimination. They took down the white only signs — just because they did all this didn’t make white people accept black people.

I am not gay. I am straight. I like men. But my parents are definitely not for the gay pride stuff like a lot of parents out here. My parents taught me being gay was wrong and god didn’t like gay people. A lot of people need to understand that religion plays apart of not accepting their gay children. You can’t rewrite the Bible because laws have changed.

I am seeing a lot of post where people are “coming out” to their parents and they are being told they don’t agree with it. One gay woman’s mother told her she wanted grandchildren. But two women cannot make a baby together naturally. Just like people want their own children and not adopt — some wasn’t their own grandchildren. There will always be conflicts in the LGBT area.
