Talk:I'll Sit Here Waiting for My Subpoena/@comment-26485526-20171119065545

The thing with the Adrian situation for me is that, while his homophobia is obviously incredibly misguided and wrong, I can understand why he was lead to believe the way that he does.

Adrian wasn't even 12 years old yet, so chances are good that at the time, he didn't have much, if any experience with LGBT people. As such, given the fact that his parents were married and since he was a product of his parents' relationship. I can see how he might have felt that homosexuality was unnatural because in his mind, his mother had to have been attracted to his father to enough of a degree to have a child together. Furthermore, given how angry his father way, and given his limited experience and knowledge about what it meant to be LGBT, he mistakenly attributed his father's anger, his parents' divorce, and as such, the breakdown of his family to the fact that his mother was a lesbian, as opposed to the fact that his mother was committing adultery. In addition, these misguided feelings only magnified when his father sadly took his own life.

Again, Adrian's homophobia is incredibly misguided and unfair, but it does make sense as to why those feelings ended up developing. I hope that at some point Adrian and Jacob make up and that Adrian finds it within himself to move past those feelings because that would be a heart-warming end to this sad story between them.
