Today, my girlfriend's mother insisted she's not homophobic, but however people only 'turn gay' because they were sexually abused, or are 'making it up to get attention'. She informed me I'm the former and my girlfriend is the latter. Uh huh. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom asked me, once again, if my girlfriend of almost a year is just a cover up for being gay. FML
Today, my mom tried to convince my dad that I was a lesbian. Why? Because she was bored. FML
Today, I found out that my mother has been telling everybody that I’m a lesbian, because both of her best friends have at least one gay child each, and she was feeling left out. This explains why people have been treating me differently the last few weeks. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me that she's totally convinced I'm gay. When I tried explaining that I can't be if I'm attracted to her, she took it as me thinking she's mannish. FML
Today, my mom went to a psychic. The reason? She has convinced herself that I'm gay, even though I've told her that I'm not, and never have been. The psychic disagreed. Apparently, I'm bi-curious with one of my guy friends. Guess who my mom believes? FML
Today, my girlfriend's homophobic cousin claimed she saw me making out with my gay friend in public. I was home alone all day, but my girlfriend is crying and unconvinced. FML
Today, my mom asked if I was seeing anyone. I launched into a description of my girlfriend, only for her to interrupt, saying that she meant a therapist, and the fact that I'd just made up a relationship was further proof that I needed one. I really do have a girlfriend. FML
Today, I introduced my girlfriend to my parents. My mother turned to me and said, "Wait you're actually gay? I thought you were just saying that to piss off your father." I came out to her when I was 16, and have confided in her about my past relationships. FML
Today, my mother urged me to "get over this lesbian thing and give me some grandkids." In front of my girlfriend of eleven months. FML
Today, at a mall, my mom accused me of lying about being gay, just because I said I don't like shopping. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Not seeing an issue here. Also, bisexuals were only half abused or only want half attention, and asexuals either had invisible parents or have the ability to control electricity. Simple human sexuality, OP.

True that

It's true though - psychologists have verified this. I mean not the attention seeking part (though inevitably it is the case with a minute portion of the homosexual demographic). Statistically speaking out of those who have walked into a psychologist's office, the two major influences on people who become same sex attracted are that they were sexually abused by an adult of the same sex or that they lacked a parental figure of the same sex. There is no gay gene but people's sexuality can be influenced from both and sometimes even in the womb.

The mother would properly agree with you, which only makes it worse.

Whats wrong with being asexual? Chores have become so easy since I accepted who I was.

As an asexual, I can neither confirm or deny the controlling electricity thing.

Um, she sounds like a bitch. Does your girlfriend live with her? Because I would dread going over there and having to see her "not homophobic" mother.

Her mom will have to accept the truth eventually... And she really sounds horrible, don't let someone that rude and ignorant spoil your day, OP.

I think asshole is a more fitting term than homophobic

Remember. Just because she's legally your mother in law does not mean she gets to be part of your life.

She's not even her mother-in-law

If you say something so blatantly homophobic and then have to insist that you aren't, there is a 99.94% chance that either A) you are, or B) you're gay.
