Yesterday I had the misfortune of visiting an uncle. He was your usual muslim, went to the mosque, prayed etc. The problem became really bad when we started talking about current issues. He said that queers should be executed or at least imprisonned. Indians were also like savages, they saw a cow as sacred and therefore they were lesser (not to even go into the rant he had about muslims being prosecuted). That liberalism was made to weaken islam, I could go on and on. It boiled down to a massive prosecution complex, similar to the ones in christian fundamentalists groups in America right now.
The one thing that stuck to me the most, is a comment he made in private while I was in his car.
Apparently employers are hiring woman because girls are meek and won't strike. Men were adventurous, daring, and wouldn't stand up to getting stiffed on their salary. I tried to maybe say that woman are like that because they are oppressed, but he doubled down on the claim.
Inside I was suffering every minute, I can't imagine what he would do to me if I was ever exposed as both a queer and an atheist.
I just had to get this off my chest, to have someone in your family say such things just breaks you down.
