That sucks.

I just...don't get how that sort of stuff doesn't occur to people. I don't get how someone can't step outside their religious beliefs for even a minute to try and understand that just because their religion doesn't okay something doesn't automatically mean it's bad.

I think they think having anything to do with it is signalling approval. Which is ridiculous. It is doing your job. You just sold two people a cake. You aren't saying anything about their wedding.

This is a pet thing right now for me because when we were watching some sort of tv show the other day where a mother refused to go to her daughter's wedding to a woman because she thought it signaled her approval, my mother said she thought the mother made the right decision. So if I end up marrying a woman, my parents probably won't be there. Which is so fucked up. No. You are there because it is a special moment for your child. You go even if you don't like who the other person is marrying. You go no matter the gender of the person they are marrying. You go because they are your child.

God damn fuckin' people. Excuse me for swearing at your parents but it pisses me up.

I'm sorry.

Agreed. Again, I refer to my job. I sell books whose content I don't agree with to people. I never once have felt like by selling them, I'm endorsing those views somehow.

I really feel for you with your mom's attitude on this issue. It's one thing for complete strangers to treat someone like dirt-it still hurts, obviously, especially if they're in a position like that of Davis or a politician, where they can have some influence and sway over how they treat LGBT people. But at least you can still think, "Well, they're a stranger, they don't know me, they're obviously an idiot." in that instance.

But I will never, under any circumstances whatsoever, understand how one's own family can dismiss or turn their child away in regards to this issue. Ever. That is utterly cold and cruel and a shameful thing for someone who supposedly calls themselves a parent to do to their kid. If I had a kid, all I'd hope for and care about if they got married or were in a relationship with someone is that they're being treated well, they're treating their loved one well, and they're happy. So long as that's in place, we're good to go, as far as I'm concerned.

I'm really sorry you have to deal with that crap.
