That’s my point, their priorities are so skewed, I thought they’d focus on something like money, not whenever a guy is 6’4.

They might say theyre completely ok with others being gay but i dont believe it, if theyre not ok with you being gay

people are far more likely to be chill with the abstract concept of pro-social behavior than they are to be chill with changing their own life (even in extremely minor ways) to actually implement pro-social behavior

I mean yes and I think a lot of people aren’t ready to confront the fact that their children might be different from them in a way that society has historically seen as contentious

It’s not ideal but it is understandable

The university criteria is literally so outdated lol. I think if you go to an american university you’d be so saddled with debt and you won’t be able to pay enough unless you go in a field that is really really high earning.

lf other people are gay and you want to be supportive you just have to live and let live. If your kid is gay and you want to be supportive that means actually putting in the work to support them, frequently against the wishes of your relatives. Extremely liable to get you into an argument, have your parents or siblings look down on your child and therefore you for raising them, etc.
