I think it’s interesting all the folks talking about neurological development, or alluding to wisdom with age. Because we’re on Lemmy, and not somebootlicker MAGA platform, I bet not a single one of those folks would question a 22 year old who said they were gay. Not one damn person would tell you to wait 5 years, or tell you you’re too young, bank your sperm, or you might change with age, or you might meet the right person and become straight for them.
My advice is to be thoughtful, be curious, and ultimately to trust yourself.

Damn I’m so curious about the venn diagram overlap between pet who hate calls and people who love video “news” like tiktok. I bet it’s near a circle.

If your brother was 17, and your mother did this, and a mandatory reporter found out they would be calling CPS - level of abnormal.
