Worried about my cousins

Ok... I know I have lots of lesbian/suspect lesbian cousins.

There is the lesbian cousin who does porn I'm supposed to stay away from on my dad's side of the family.

There is my older 1st cousin I've mentioned before who lived with a close female friend and her myspace has comments from the girl I think she is currently seeing who she went and vacationed with last September.

Then there is older 1st cousin's daughter who recently listed herself on myspace as a lesbian. She is a freshmen in high school. She would post status updates every few days saying "I love Kayla sooooo much" and she'd message me telling me how she fell for her, how she was so worried about losing "someone" and things like that.

The daughter also recently chopped off her hair. She had long, curly hair, now she has short spikes. I know for sure she doesn't own a dress. In every photo I've seen she is wearing jeans and a boys t-shirt. Her sisters are all adorned in makeup and girly clothes.

Well, my mom was talking with my aunt in OKlahoma yesterday in the airport and the girls came up. My aunt said she is "worried and praying for the 1st cousin's daughter because she has cut her hair really short," she is hoping it is just a stage, but is worried that she could "like women."

My mom relayed this information to me and told me that I need to pray for 1st cousin's daughter also just in case she does like girls.

Wow, kinda revealing, eh?

If your mom only knew.

Or was she trying to open up conversation with you?

You should have told her that being a lesbian is no big deal, you know lots of gays and lesbians. Maybe encouraged her to think about the people around her who are GLBT and how "normal" they are. You don't have to come out to her, just get her thinking about people she might know that are GLBT.

Aek: Indeed

James: I don't think my mom was- I think my mom is oblivious.

Bruce: You're so right. I do have to admit and take responsibility on my end that I was taken aback and the fact I hate confrontation with my mom; but you are right. I am sure this is not the end of that and I need/should throw out that gays and lesbians are normal.
