But to my parents that's just the person's own fault for being Muslim and they should have to deal with the consequences of that religion. It'd be like me being punished for being Catholic by the dining halls serving only meat on Fridays during Lent and then being told since I choose to be Catholic I just have to deal with it. That's just ridiculous to me. And it's just so baffling cause while my mom is eh, my dad normally is a very very nice man. Just... never with stuff like this.

Well I can't prove she did it intentionally since I wasn't there when she did it. Sure the charger started malfunctioning after she forcibly stuffed it underneath a bunch of stuff under my bed, but maybe she didn't realize it'd damage the charger. And with my necklace, one could argue it's possible the necklace got broken on accident, and she decided saving the stones wasn't worth trying to pick them out from the broken glass shards. The thing that grates me about the second one is that she still has yet to apologize for it. That has made me almost report her. But either way it matters little now since my only proof is the string at this point since the broken bottle, the glass shards, and the gemstones are all gone.
Yeesh. I know we were super behind with marriage equality and a bunch of other stuff, but I guess it's a lot more rare to encounter people with those types of attitudes where I live. Maybe I'm just not exposed to it, but at my old job I was out to everyone and nobody had a problem with it. I mean, I wouldn't go telling customers because there's no point, but yeah, all my coworkers thought it was great or just didn't care. xD It scares me that there is still that really strong prejudice in places where people should know better.

I can't believe she didn't apologise! That would really piss me off as well. Sucks that you can't really do anything. =/ Have you brought it up with her?
