My sister is homophobic, how do I confront her?

I am a bisexual guy and I recently had just told my sister about it, and she has been no help at all she’s homophobic and has treated me so wrongly, calling me all homophobic slurs such as queer etc… How can I confront her? What would be the best confrontation?

Answer #1

Hmm I am sorry, I’ve never actually had first hand experience with this. Ok, now I have no idea if this will work, but it is just a suggestion, afterall she is your sister and persumably you would like to have some sort of relationship with her… Sit her down and explain this wasnt exactly a choice… You didnt chose to be who you are (who on earth would chose to wake up one morning and decide maybe being gay was the right way to go, I mean lets deal with all the prejudiced people out there, because life isn’t hard enough). Then maybe you want to find out exactly what her problem is with gay people? I mean prejudiced people are usually so because they believe negative stereotypes… maybe if you try to dispel a few of those? Goodluck with your sister, and dont take it too badly if you cant convince her. I dont get it, but sometimes you just cant change the way certain people think.

Answer #2

tell her that shes being unreasonable about it & thts how you are & nothing is going to change & if she not okay with that thn you dont want to have a relationship with her anymore.

Answer #3

She is just ignorant. Dont try to say anything to her it will proberbly not change her mind instead make her envy your happy life by living it as you please. Its so sad that people still think that way. Good luck xx
