Picture this: you’re happily married for a year, and then you discover your in-laws’ true colors when they find out your brother is gay and HIV positive. The in-laws start making snide comments about his ‘unchristian’ lifestyle and even go as far as to say they’re scared for your baby’s safety. You decide enough is enough and ban them from family events until they apologize and educate themselves on HIV transmission. But now, half the family is calling you an a**hole. So, what do you think? Let’s dive into this rollercoaster of a story and see what unfolds.

Our storyteller’s in-laws have shown their true homophobic colors after discovering their son-in-law’s brother is gay and HIV positive. They’ve made countless comments about his ‘unchristian’ lifestyle, accused him of being a perv, and even claimed he might make their grandchild sick. Our protagonist, furious with their ignorance, decides to ban them from family events until they apologize and educate themselves on HIV transmission. With half the family supporting them and the other half calling them an a**hole, they’re left questioning their decision. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
