love MC's paranoia bc real. Anyway, yeah he's dense but his paranoia s there for a reason. ppl tend to forget queer people aren't so open when it comes to expressing interest in the same sex. Most of the time, actions that are "flirtatious" will be glossed over especially in mlm situations because liking men is kind of a hazard especially when they give off the picture perfect straight guy demeanor. Next thing y'know, it's either a punch or a laugh coming your way after a confession. It's rarely ever going to be a kiss (speaking through my gay boy perspective. idk about u girlies but i imagine it as similar.)
you people think being outed is lightwork "His family already knows so why keep him in the dark?" You do not know the feeling of having to be outed by someone else. if you aren't ready and everyone else already knows. With how his mom reacted to him dating a man, it has probably occurred in that family that the mom or anyone else really, has already said something homophobic-adjacent making him stay in the metaphorical closet. LOGICALLY,,, it would be best for him to come out on his own terms EVEN if everyone else already knows.
Bruuuuh I said the same exact thing last week and these mfs were cursing me out. I didn’t even respond. Making comments like “you don’t know how a Korean household works…” and bs like that. As if that’s an excuse for forcing someone to stay in the closet or just straight up out them.
Yes, that Korean household stuff is crap. It's not like homosexuality is exactly kosher in America right now either. But I would NEVER handle the situation this way if my 15 year old son were to ever come out to me. Because I taught my son that love is love, that homosexuality has been demonized by religious freaks. I taught him, I advised him, I have led by example. Now he is old enough to decide for himself who he gets to love and deal with the consequences of his choices, good or bad. That is what being a parent should be like all over the world. Love, accept, trust your child no matter what. If that is not how parents are acting, shame on them for letting society rule how they treat their children and it is time for change.
