I'm pretty sure having an overly zealous person trying to exorcise you - let alone it being your very own father - because of a (non-harmful) lifestyle choice rates pretty high on the twisted things scale.

It's a forum meme.

I didn't think you were serious. That's actually pretty common. Sadly.
I'm kind of surprised that some of you would even doubt his story - sure, he might be lying, but it's really not far-fetched. At all.

Fake or not it would make a good horror story.

Yeah, reality often would...

If it's any consolation things can get better. One of my best friends from grade school/high school is gay and his father lost it when he came out. He had a rough time for some years, and then he got older and figured things out. I made a speech at his (very large and mixed-attendance) wedding a couple of years ago. He's a successful banker (and a city alderman) now and he and his husband (who has also become a really good friend of mine) own a house together in the suburbs...they're very happy. They have a legal civil union ('cuz you can do that in Illinois now) and a ton of friends.

My advice would be "don't stress...people svck sometimes." Start working on getting out of your parents' house so you can be in control of your life.

Damn. MF, you need to seriously calm down. Take a step back and clear your head. I'm nit going to pretend to know what you are going through.

This honestly may not be the best place for you to discuss this. Obviously your parents are not helping either, especially since religion has corrupted their minds. Maybe its time to seek professional help in dealing with your emotions.

I think right now, going to a friends house may be the best option. The situation in your home right now is not good for anyone involved. Make a few calls, see if you can crash at their place for a few days play some Fallot or TES hang out with your furry buddies and just clear your head.

And remember. When you think things are bad for you. There may be someone worse off.

No advice. It is imprudent to have someone you are dating to stay with you before marriage, but so is how the society changed. If you didn't intent to have six with him at this moment, why not let him sleep downstairs? Or leave him a seperate room? Or simply notify your parents what kind of precautions you will use to keep your maidenhood (assuming it's still intact).

Never in such situation, but I'm sure if a girl is gonna stay for the night, my parents will be all over to get me impregnated her.

You haven't caught up on what gender the OP is yet ?

Sorry I′m derailing but people really need to start reading all the comments before posting

In any case I hope you get to spend time with your BF. It′s really unfortunate how the current economy keeps people like you at home and forces them to rely on their parents justice for what freedoms you can have at the only place one can call home.

I understand what he is saying. He is saying that if his girlfriend stays over his parents would take issue with It for fear of naughty things taking place. Though MF has several conditions working against him. And as far as I can tell his preference in companionship is not the dominating factor. Its the religion his parents chose to blindly follow.

It doesn't matter what gender you are, or your sixuality. The point is that is his parent's house, and they don't feel comfortable with him having his boyfriend over. They may have felt the same if he were heterosixual and it were a girl.
They are completly within their rights to restrict whatever they please. The OP is completely within his rights to move the [censored] out and find his own place. He is an advlt.
Third Eye gave excellent advice.

That was three years ago, actually.



I'm a guy?... So why would I have maidenhood?

He'd be sleeping in a separate room, it's that he can't stay at all.

Everyone has a different opinion. In my opinion, your anger only shows that you have difficulty accepting that and that you sometimes think your opinions are correct while other opinions are not, without question -- which everyone does, of course.

Did you read the thread? :blink:

Trying to perform an exorcism on your own son after he admits he's homosixual goes pretty far beyond just having a different opinion, I think.

Oh dear, I thought I did, but I suppose not. However my apologies for my ignorance, I do feel that statement is pretty universal, and I'll stick with it.

This is pretty much how I feel.

I don't know of any parent that would let their offspring's date stay over night, and not be a bit uncomfortable. Even George Costanza's parents wouldn't let him have a girl over when he was living with his parents for a few months. I know that is only a tv show, but it shows how most parents think.

You are 19, and I think that you should move out, when the time is right. Getting mad at your parents, and causing a lot of hoopla over this is a little selfish on your part in my opinion.

Agreed.

The "their house, they have the right" comments are really pretty meaningless. No one doubts that the parents have the legal right to prevent people they don't want in their house from entering their house. As for the moral right, it's pretty clear that the parents are morally wrong for preventing their son from pursuing a healthy relationship.

Ideally, the parents would show some maturity in this. But since it seems like they're going to be dikes about it, the best thing is to just move out. (And I think one will find that this is easier than one might think. If you can find a decent shared house, then you will probably only need to pay for rent + utilities, and the initial cost will just be moving your own bed and stuff into your new room.)
