Digging up old threads...

I've been totally out of my closet for two years now, and my parents never really have had any problem with it. Now I just feel like my father's even a bit too cool with the subject, telling his friend how proud he is for me being so courageous and everything. Everytime I see him he tells me it's okay, whether I bring a guy or a girl to meet him, and that I'll always be the best son he'd ever have. I wish he'd just let the subject be, it's just my sexual orientation, after all. And I can tell, it's not just that kind of "oh yeah, I'm such a good and supportive dad, but surely you realize it's just a phase?" kind of talk. I honestly don't get why he's so proud for me being gay. He even "came out" a heterosexual last time I saw him...

But I guess that's better than really conservative parents.

And, well, my mother was a real fag hag, when she was younger. She has also done some drag king -ish stuff, and loves to play dress-up with me. Her attitude towards my sexuality doesn't bother me, though. She just doesn't shout it around the village.

I just wish I knew, how I could make my father understand that I'd appreciate it more, if he just let me live my life. I don't need to hear I'm doing right everytime he calls me when I'm clubbing or something.
