Today, I overheard my parents talking about our family pet. Or at least I thought they were, until my mother exclaimed, "Honestly, I don't know why we keep her." Our dog is male. FML

Don't sweat it OP, they probably weren't being serious. Parents always say things like that when they're ticked off.

Maybe your parents didn't like the dog because they thought she was a bitch?

I bet they knew you were there and we're just joking around. If not, fyl OP

I don't mean to be rude, but you should probably the post again. The dog is a male.

#9 learn to complete your sentences and not leave out important words

The dog is male but the parents thought it was female Also just for goofs, you should probably proofread your replies to make sure you didn't forget any words lol

Or he shouldn't reply when what he has to say is retarded.

Pretty sure by "thought they were talking about the pet until" meant she thought it was about the dog and then realized it was about her.

a bitch is a female dog. he was saying that the parents thought the dog was female. my mom calls my male dog a she all the time. she forgets he is male

#9 I think you accidentally the verb.

Maybe it could be a new female pet! But really, that sucks op

This is exactly what I was gonna say. We have a male cat that my mom ALWAYS calls "she".

Same. My family has three boy cats my father keeps referring to with female pronouns.

Parents can be assholes sometimes sorry friend

It could've been that your mom accidentally called your pet a her. Or it could just be then joking between each other about you. I'm sure they still love you and just thought they were being funny.

Yes, its hilarious to talk behind peoples back. Especially if their your kid

My family tends to be very sarcastic. We aren't very good with feelings, but we're great with jokes. To outsiders, it can seem like we're really mean to each other, but that's just how we are. All families work in different ways. Most likely it was a joke.

@24 Everyone talks about other people when they aren't around. It's only a bad thing if you wouldn't say those things to the person's face.

Maybe you're the only one who pays attention to your dog.
