    Ya’ll want weirdo creepy shit?

    My Dad made a thing of taking me, a 12 year old boy back in the early 00s, to Hooters, for a while, and would encourage me to oogle the servers.

    This is… previously, before this, I was raised extremely prudish and right wing nutjob style Christian.

    My Dad just snapped, internally, at some point… alcoholism followed this.

    … my parents are still married, for some reason, even though they have clearly hated each other for a very long time.

        I appreciate the well wishes.

        Yeah… I… have not had the easiest run at life, but, things have turned around since I ghosted my entire family a few years back.

        Well, the book explicitly says that women are less than men, so they are just doing what the good book says.

          That book says a lot of things, almost always conflicting things and depending on what remake you read it has an entirely different spin.

          Anyone who says they understand the bible and doesn’t know Aramaic, Hebrew and some other archaic languages is lying and most likely trying to mislead you. Although to be fair, even if they do know those languages they are probably trying to mislead you.

      I wonder if your dad just wanted to get out and you were an excuse.

      tho, extreme christian - maybe he was trying to make you straight via exposure
