A Coming Out Story with a Twist: Not the Only Gay Sheep in the Family
In a family Zoom call, a cousin bravely declares her sexuality, only to discover she’s not the only ‘gay sheep’ in the family. The revelation leads to chuckles, awkward glances, and a somewhat deflated cousin. The other ‘gay sheep’, who had come out in a less dramatic fashion, is left questioning whether being more open about his sexuality could have prevented the awkwardness. As the dust settles, he decides to give his cousin some space before reaching out. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
