Shocking Confession
By u/Icosotc: A week before my younger sister’s wedding, my father called a family meeting at his house. The atmosphere was tense as we gathered, unsure of what important matter he needed to discuss. Our minds raced with worries that he might be facing a serious health issue like cancer. With tears in his eyes, he revealed the shocking news: he had a 5-year-old son living in the neighbouring town. This child was conceived and born during his marriage to my mother. He explained that it wasn’t until recently, after conducting a DNA test, that he became certain of the child’s paternity.
As evidence of his statement, he presented a photo of our recently discovered half-brother, who bore a striking resemblance to our father.
Daddy Dearest
u/UncleSlayton: Fast forward to approximately three years ago. I had recently taken a test and noticed a slight reduction in my score, which I attributed to what I believed was a matter of semantics. I discussed this with my father, along with other individuals, seeking their opinions on whether it was indeed a matter of semantics. My father wasn’t entirely certain, but he leaned towards agreeing with my perspective. The following day, I engaged in a discussion with the teacher, and I successfully regained the lost points. However, my curiosity persisted, prompting me to conduct an online search to explore the issue further.
During my online research, I stumbled upon a forum post addressing the EXACT SAME ISSUE, featuring the very question I had encountered on the test. I assumed it might be someone I had previously consulted, but the profile picture belonged to a woman I had never met. To investigate further, I decided to browse the user’s posting history. It was during this process that I made the unexpected discovery that my father is a transgender individual. My immediate reaction was to verify this by examining his closet.
