This is the first time I have ever had a good (medical) excuse to not attend my wife's conservative family's Thanksgiving. The problem is they're evangelicals and this is Indiana, so they always vote red.
To their credit, they are very warm and welcome people. They accepted my daughter is queer the moment my wife told them (whereas my supposedly left-wing mother poorly hides her distaste) and they welcomed me into their family despite knowing I was Jewish. They have never once tried to convert me.
I don't really get it, but it won't be an issue for much longer anyway because we're emigrating ASAP.
Ayyyy, Indiana gang. I'm up in amishland where it's quite red, so I definitely understand.
I'm interested in emigrating too, though I'm a bit worried about this seemingly global shift to the right.
Yeah, there's nowhere 100% safe, but I'm a dual citizen with the UK and they are working to ban conversion therapy. My goal right now is to just keep my child safe.
Oh man, having dual citizenship right now would be clutch.
I wish you and your family all the best!
Thank you. The best to you as well!
