I can't disagree with anything you say - particularly the opening statement. Even my own mum pretends to be fine about my sexuality but she's not really. I think she pretends partly because she feels (being educated and intelligent) that she should, and partly because it's a mum's job to love regardless.

Being gay isn't a lifestyle BTW - we don't choose. If we did most of us would be straight I think you meant sexuality, and I'm not sure you can make someone gay - or straight for that matter. They might be able to pretend but it's tremendously damaging.
