They are afraid of how it would ‘reflect’ on them. That’s why they are so paranoid about it.
They are afraid of the shame and judgment of other people knowing their child is a sexual deviant.
I dunno, it don’t think most folks are different. I have hung out with plenty of self-identified queer/sexual open people… who also viciously judge other people for what they perceive as non-conformity to their own sexual expectations. Like, queer couples who live in fear their child will be ‘a straight’ or see being ‘cis’ as a negative thing. Folks just want you to be what they want you to be, and they are mad when you are not.
People generally just feel the need to police other’s sexual behaviors and gender identity, and a lot of people have hypocritical double standards around it.
Have experienced similar. People love to speculate on this shit, for some reason. Ain’t they own sex lives interesting enough?!
