okay, i'm gay, but this is still relevant.

my dad (who i haven't come out to yet) thinks colourful underwear is gay, and those are his remarks to seeing that i've packed both red and blue undies while we were on vacation last year.

like bro they're just colours.

When you’ll finally go outta closet he’ll be like: told ya, knew that from the start cuz of the gay underwear xD

Oh boy don't bring him to Australia, white undies are the rarity here.

[-] ripcord@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I thought they were generally made fun of and rare anymore pretty much everywhere, like people who still buy white tube socks. And wear them with sandals.

White underwear and socks are just so boring.

Haven't come out to him yet but you were ready to come out to the whole internet ? I don't want to shame you but man come on grow some balls 😉

to be clear, i've been out to the rest of my family for a long time, and i am very open about my sexuality (even irl, which takes at least some balls because i'm not in a very lgbt-friendly region). the reason i am not out to my father is that he has always been a traditional "man of the house" person, and i am not driving a wedge in our relationship by letting him know that his ideal bloodline ends with me.

if you don't understand the cultural contexts in which i reside, do not assume my intentions or degrade my decisions.

Yep, I'm sorry never thought of that
