OMG! My dad is a BIG homophobe and politically incorrect all the time but I have never been accused of being gay or not. My sexuality has always been my own issue. I have been married and I have 2 children (22 and 23) I am bisexual but as a practicing Muslim I am celibate. Obviously as I read slash I am not a conservative card carrying member of the taliban, just in case you were wondering.
I can not believe you father is giving you such a had time with this issue. If you say you like boys then he should accept that. Secondly if you like girls he should love you anyway. Third a person's sex life should not be living room conversation for the family. It is a private thing and I think your father is disrespecting you by doing this.
My children are both still virgins. I do not judge or push. If they save themselves for marriage Praise God. If not please use protection. If they are straight, gay, bi or try anything sexual I do not care. I love them, they are my children. And I do not want to discuss it unless they come to me with a question or advise. After the birds and the bees and masturbation talk at 12 I was finished.
When he does that to you start getting up and leaving the room. Something strikes me as SO wrong. I do not live with you so I do not know what is going on but there is something not right. Why will he not take you at your word? Why does it matter? Why does he feel the need to discuss it? Why is it his business? At your age this is not a topic a man should be discussing with his daughter.
As for what you are doing...I am sure it is NOT you it is HIM. Take a stand and when he starts absence yourself from the conversation. Then he can argue with your mother or himself about your sexuality that is non of his business.
I hope I was not too over the top on my opinion but this just really struck a cord in me as a parent. May God bless you and I pray that this situation will get better for you. Just be who you are and love yourself.
