Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I got a bunch of family members that say these things a lot. One of them in particular calls back to moments in their youth where they were "surrounded by gay people" and implying that its a "vice" they fell into.
Granted this same family member also blames their former friends for their actual former bad habits (drinking, smoking, partying too hard, wasting money beyond their means), also implying they were forced into them, despite them clearly being envious of people doing them now.
