Nice derailment, but no. What you want out of life isn't something you're born with, like sexual orientation. You have to discover it through experience.

So? They might be bi and not know it.

How do you know where you want to live? How do you know that you want a pet or not? How do you know what you want to study? How do you know what you want to do as a career?

No one has experience in everything. It doesn't make their choices invalid.

No one has experience in everything, but you can't possibly know what you want to do with your life without experience. You aren't born knowing what these careers entail, or what marriage and childrearing entail. You learn about them through experience and education.

If you don't have any experience or education about other choices other than the ones your parents made, there is no way you can possibly be sure that's what you want. Because you don't know of anything else.

Yes, but that's essentially never the case. You have various friends, relatives, acquaintances, trips, stories, movies, TV, etc. Not to mention just looking out your own window. We're not talking about someone who is literally locked in their house 24/7 without windows.

In many small close-knit rural Bible Belt towns? Especially those built around a specific industry like mining or farming? It is kind of like that. Because the entire town is made up of people just like your parents. Or at the very least your parents will only associate with people just like them and only allow you to associate with people just like them (often by homeschooling you until you're legally old enough to work). Everyone has the same point of view and the same goals. It's an ultra-conservatiove bubble of the worst kind.

And you know this... how? Either you're making huge assumptions, or you were there and managed to find your own path somehow, meaning others can do it too.

I was there, and managed to find my way out. And I never would have done so if I hadn't started to question why I wanted what I wanted (or thought I wanted). Other people can do it, too, but not without asking questions about how they've been conditioned to want traditional things even when other options are available.

Okay, yes, but that doesn't mean that the choice to stay there is invalid. You choice is not the only correct one.

I applaud you for your choice in taking the tough road. However, you were obviously exposed to other things too (probably less than people in the big city, yes). Obviously most of the girls in your town were exposed to similar things as you. At some point you made the choice to break free and experience more things than they would and it was clearly the right choice for you. However, it doesn't mean that girls who chose a more sheltered life are wrong, no matter how angry you are that they chose to follow in their mother's footsteps.
