Hi Jake,My sister-in-law is mad at me because her son just came out and she thinks it’s my fault. Let me explain…I’m gay, and because of this she’s always joked about how there’s a “gay gene” in our family.

Maybe there is. Maybe there isn’t. Who knows? (My guess is probably not.) Still, it’s been this running gag with her for years.

Until recently when her 16-year-old son came out. Now suddenly the joke is no longer funny to her and she’s mad at me.Subscribe to our daily newsletter for a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.This is obviously ridiculous for a number of reasons, the main one being that if such a gene exists (again, who even knows???), her son didn’t get it from me (his uncle).

He would have gotten it from his father (my brother), who got it from our parents. So the people she should be upset with are them, not me.Furthermore, if she’s so convinced this gay gene thing is real and her kid got it from our side of the family, why didn’t she consider this before she decided to make babies with my brother in the first place?
