Well frankly, doesn't this border on slander? I mean, the mother has no proof; the child (op) is in fact heterosexual; the lie is being spread and causing people to act differently; the subject of the lie is potentially harmed socially... Stop me if I am wrong, but isn't that the very definition of slander?Kasurami said:

Not actually Pederasty. Different meaning entirely.ReservoirAngel said:

Which is technically perfectly normal, though "normal" can vary. And land you behind bars. :l[sub]She's 5 minutes underage, GET HIM![/sub]
Man there's a lot of words for various kinds of illegal activities. Pedophilia, pedarasty, Hebephilia, Ephebophilia...why can't they keep it simple? lolLegendaryGamer0 said:Not actually Pederasty. Different meaning entirely.ReservoirAngel said:

most of my family thinks i'm either gay or a eunic...............apparently shy doesn't register on their vocabulary
i've heard the drunken "if you're gay that's ok" speech plenty of times, gets annoying after a while

Ephebophilia is legal to act on actually depending on your local AoC laws. Plus, the attractions themselves are not illegal. If they were, Orwell was right.ReservoirAngel said:Man there's a lot of words for various kinds of illegal activities.

Last Christmas my family asked my parents if I was gay, and my dad answered yes just for the hell of it...
He probably had a lot of fun with the following discussions.
I didn't.

Heinous. Though unless your mom and her friends have some influence on your life outside of the home, I wouldn't worry too much about it. If she can't understand your repeated corrections on your sexual preference, then it sounds like she's just grabbing at something to ***** on for the sake of having something to ***** on.DuctTapeJedi said:
Have you given her the silent treatment? Maybe giving her some space for awhile in protest might give her some time to think on it. I don't think it would help to pander to her expectations, but regardless of what she thinks or says, you know who and what you are, and that's all that really matters.
Personally, I would take it as an excuse to get out of the house as much as possible. And if you happen to have a guy friend or two that would pick you up and drop you off, it might get her to cut you some slack. Just a thought.
Oh, and there is this story my mother likes to tell about this time when I was eight, and there was this spider in the shower... To this day, she just won't let me live it down. X_X
My parents are pretty cool. They sometimes think of me as being a good example, which is a pain, as by conventional standards, I'm a bad example.
For you situation, just ignore them. It's not only none of hteir business, but it's just going to wind you up

even if you were a computer genius not all people bother learning 3d modelling. xD same with 3d modellers don't necessarily learn to edit sound verry well. and then getting pissed at you for not beeing able to do it? now that's just ridiculous.. xDVarrdy said:
Geez who gives a shit moms are weird. Sure we love them and all, but they are weird as hell. mine also thought that I was gay. I think she was also trying to set me up with a gay guy. Though to be perfectly honest I can sorta see where she is coming from, and I'm not saying I'll never have a gay relationship or at least sex. Couldn't really dig the whole gay culture though.
Maybe she knows me better then I give her credit for :O
Back to you though, not even the slightest interest in other girls?

well just be pissed at him for beeing religious then. : pBioHazardMan said:
i come from a place where everyone is more or less agnostic so saying your an atheist doesn't really get you much hate around here. by agnostic i mean more or less they do not care about religion at all.
That is simply offending. We are also humans you know, we have our self respect. I would never do anything with a girl if it lowered my self respect. And I think I'm speaking for a lot of men here. If you have a different opinion about men, then either you are being very shortsighted or you are hanging around the wrong men.zelda2fanboy said:
But yeah it's way easier for a girl to pick up a guy than vice versa. Have to agree on that.
I'm going to be a jerk about this, because I'm tired and I'm not in a nice mood.
1) Should have been in the advice forums (no big deal though)
2) Give us some more info! What kind of family are you from? Have you ever had gay-relationships? Have you ever had straight relationships? How does your mother feel about you possibly being gay?
You can't expect proper help if you don't give proper info.

I dunno my parents haven't right out and said it to anyone, but they keep asking me if I am gay also. About twice a year so far for the last 4 or so. And no I've never had a serious relationship with a guy to prove otherwise but I'm just not a very sexual/touchy feely person.
I can't force it. I even try to get my friends to explain/help with my 'problem' but frankly, I get my lifes highs off other things. Emotional attachments are just so low on my list, but... at the same time I like being around people I trust and rely on at times... just not in that way I guess?
Any desire to increase the human population is totally out there for me.
So of course the only explanation to most people? Man she /must/ be a Lesbian.
(Women just can't win this one, we either do it too much or too little don't we.)
...Just no. 2 of my friends are, but the idea of it kinda repels me for myself, and if I was forced to settle with a companion it would have to be of the male variety.
But right now I'm an alien to everyone because not many seem to understand. Yay life.

My parents have never assumed I was gay before. Granted, my mum did walk in on me *ehem* doing the deed once, but I don't think that they would have thought it anyway.
Mind you, my mad catholic aunt has the idea that I'm an alcoholic. I don't really understand, especially considering her husband is one of the biggest alcoholics I know (right after some of my other male relatives).

Wow, that is really endearing. You are a Tomboy (Tomboys have spunk, spunk is always good), and you replaced s**t with c**p (I was bored so I *'d ut crap as well) without also sounding immature in the same post, so it was more a statement of 'Why be obscene when it isn't necessary' rather than "I'm young and sensitive and swear words make me uncomfortable".DuctTapeJedi said:
In short, I really love that post you made, for reasons which are both logical and maybe a little eccentric.
OT: Freak your mum out by hooking up with a female friend of yours (platonoic friend, so that it is a consentual mind-mess, rahter than a friendship altering experiment) in front of her. If she's insane, short of marrying a macho-man and spending the rest of your life in a flowery apron baking cookies, she'll probably always be suspicious that you are gay, so may as well have a bit of fun with it.
Wow, my parents must be awesome, to my knowledge they've never told their friends/family my personal buisness.
They do have a nasty habit of bringing up the time I kissed my 3rd cousin, even she's forgotten about it by now, they're the only ones who even remember it happening at this point.
