When I think about American attitudes to parenting there's something that always comes to mind, but I don't know whether it's a real thing. All my life in American films and TV I've heard child characters addressing their dads as "sir" or being told off for not doing so.
Is that really a commonplace thing in American families, or is it just a shorthand way of showing that the character is a shitty dad?
There's still time to increase the sample size!
As someone raised in the south in a military family, I can say that this is very real. I was raised to call all adults sir or ma'am, and that included my parents.
This is really prevalent in military families, I think.
My parents were also against the use of pronouns??? Not in the 'Don't put pronouns in your bio' way, but in a 'It's disrespectful to call your mother 'her'' way.
Republicans would erase their own children.
This is why you don’t fucking say “I wish so-and-so had an LGBTQIA+ child.”
They do. And they don’t care.
hi! queer child of a state congressmsn here! they do not care. :)
"Love the sinner, hate the sin" didn't go away; they just know better than to say that phrase out loud anymore.
"My love for my son is unconditional [but if this law forces him back into the closet, that would be preferable to me, because I view him as a sinner and this might make him stop sinning]."
Don't be fooled. Know what you are to them.

REBLOG if you have amazing talented artist friends!
My child is an artist and I am so, so proud of them!!
In celebration of The Chicks releasing new music for the first time in 14 years I have drawn an old favorite of mine, Goodbye Earl.
(Please watch with caution as the song contains mentions of domestic abuse, murder, and some MEAN banjo-playing!)
Gotta say still kinda peeved when people say “vote blue no matter who” when a Dem literally enabled this by switching to Republican.
How is that fair.
In such a gerrymandered state, it's hard enough to get a democrat in office without them being double-fucking-agents. =/
DGA and SAG-AFTRA may be next to strike in the capitalist shit show known as “Hollywood.”
Let’s fucking gooooooo
First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out, because I was not a communist...
Buffy season 6 is insane. It’s like what if someone you loved died a meaningful and accepting death but you couldn’t live without them so you brought them back. And against all odds, they didn’t come back wrong, but they didn’t WANT to come back at all, and now they have to learn to live in this world again while resenting their friends and family for taking the death they willingly chose away from them. And existence is hell compared to death because in life they never get a break and never get to rest because they’re constantly needed by everyone. And they can’t chose to die a second time because they know what it would do to their loved ones who still never got over the fact that they died the first time. And also there’s a musical episode.
I made this post while I was 2 episodes into season 6 and now I need to reiterate my feelings AGAIN. They make Buffy Summers APPLY FOR A LOAN approximately two weeks after she CLAWS HER WAY OUT OF HER GRAVE.
tumblr polls will be like WHO IS MORE ANNOYING AND AWFUL: kanasmilkers1488, the neo-nazi who has deleted five times and remade and spends seven hours a day harassing people on tumblr OR mou5eg1rl, the 20 year old trans woman who lives in norway and makes informative posts about egret migration patterns, and then mou5eg1rl will be winning by a 10% margin
Unfortunately, I need Disney to crush DeSantis, completely and utterly. Because if it isn't a complete rout, then other companies without the Mouse's resources (so, almost all of them) won't pick the fight in the first place and will back down the next time a DeSantis tries this.
Disney wants your money.
Fascists want you dead.
Also, pragmatism aside, Disney is just objectively right here. Desantis very very very very very very clearly broke the law to go after a minority. The fact that Disney is defending said minority because they see it as a source of money doesn't change the fact that Desantis broke the law to go after a minority. Like, wider context of Capitalism aside, what we have here is a very specific case where one side is illegally going open season on vulnerable kids, and the other side said "hey, don't do that."
