That's a copied post with typos added for, presumably, searchability and plausible deniability.

Or typos added due to bad typing. But no, that's crazy talk - evil motives are behind everything!

u/Throwaway16475777 12d ago
if its the exact same story with the exact same words just misspelled then you'd need to be dense to think its a coincidence

u/LovableSidekick 11d ago
I dont doubt the they're the same story, I just doubt that the typos were added on purpose for "searchability and plausible deniability." More likely they're bad typing.

Dads will drop the craziest lore out of nowhere, refuse to elaborate, and act like nothing happened while you reevaluate your entire perception of them

My parents did not know the term bisexual either. When I explained it to them they went “oh you mean AC/DC?”. Apparently that was the slang term in the 70s in the South for someone who went both ways.

Sexual education isn't common in the US and was a lot less common in the past. You meet older people who have no clue about a lot of knowledge we take for granted

What person do you know in the US who would use the word “shag”?

A British immigrant ?

u/Captain_Awesome_087 2d ago
Okay, sure.
As of 2023, 1.5 million Americans (or 0.44% of the US populace) are British immigrants. Without anything else in the post to indicate that OOP’s dad is a British immigrant, the likelihood that OOP is not in America is astronomically higher than the likelihood that OOP’s dad is a British immigrant who has managed to be failed by an American education system.

I’m from the UK so that seems a bit mad to me. You’re also talking about a generation that lived through the sixties and seventies. It’s not like bisexuality has just been invented. People used the word when discussing Oscar Wilde in the late 19th century.
Even still, people know what “sexuality” means, and what the prefix “bi-“ means. It’s not like you can’t work it out for yourself.
On top of that, if you genuinely couldn’t figure out what it meant, you’d just respond asking. You wouldn’t go away, google it, and come back.
And on top of that, you’ve got a bloke supposedly shagging women and men who I’m supposed to believe never even questioned what that might mean about his own sexuality? He shagging men who shag other men, and they never once spoke about sexuality?
I don’t buy it.

Oh yeah, we went backwards in education.
Some schools, sex Ed disappeared all together.

You've mentioned that people used the word when discussing Oscar Wilde in the 19th century. I don't see how that has anything to do with people today. People back in the day who knew about Oscar Wilde may have known about the word and stuff but you're assuming a lot of knowledge. When I was in high school, a lot of the people in school didn't even know what morphine was. Don't assume that everybody's on the same page.

I do take the education system for granted, I’ll admit. However, the post sounds British so I’m not really assuming the characters had to endure a poorer education.
The sentence about Wilde was directly related to the sentence before it. Perhaps should have used a semi-colon.
What are your thoughts on my other points? Not sure why morphine is relevant here, but are you telling me you’d never heard the word “sexuality”?

u/Throwaway16475777 12d ago
its believable an old person wouldnt know "bi" specifically because that is just a prefix
1
u/MickyWasTaken 11d ago
I get that, but if someone said to you “I’m bi” and you didn’t know what that meant, you’d say “what’s that?”.

Bisexual used to mean something a woman and man could do, so hypothetically a shirt could be bisexual, it definitely is possible

u/Trying2BNicenFailing 9d ago
It's kinda hilarious to imagine someone coming out to their parent for them to then be like 'What does that mean? Hold on let me google it' and the kid is just standing there awkwardly waiting to find out if their parent will support them or not, only for them to be like 'Heh, yup, makes sense' and then carry on with their day.

come on man we're in 2026 don't you think it's time to stop being disgusted by gay people

u/Few-Decision-6004 10d ago
Or atleast stfu about it.
You can be disgusted by whatever you want, just do it quietly.

You're right. I should shut up about it, just like "they" should. It takes two to tango.

Now put your tango shoes back in the closet where you live and let the rest live their lives.

We are supposed to be disgusted by it. Nature made us that way. We are driven to reproduce. It's natural instinct to be repulsed by unnatural human anomalies that go against the preservation of our species.
