Talking to my dear old mum (91 on Tuesday) the other day she mentioned that my brother-in-law had admitted to being effeminate.
Now my mum who has always liked to speak her mind, confessed that she likes her men to be real men!
She obviously does not know me as well a she thought. It is a bit late in her life to shatter her belief that I am 'all man'.
Trouble is I have still to come out to my partner and immediate family (I doubt if my partner would be able to keep it to herself).
My mum lives in a residential home for the elderly about 150 miles away. So it is possible to keep my 'outing' from her.
She is not likely to change now after all these years.
