Reply #67: I googlestalk people all the time.

Once, I googled this girl I have a crush on (who barely knows I exist), and found this article about her.

Then I realized I didn't want to date her because I'd really rather not meet her parents.

They seem, um, like they're living through their child? Girl in question is transgendered (MTF), but her parents are absolutely insisting on having naturally-conceived grandchildren. Thus, she's not having surgery or taking hormones, so she can have a kid one day and make her parents happy. That, and they don't accept the fact that she's trans at all.

She's really lovely and smart and unique, but I'd rather not go through the whole meeting the parents thing.

I should not know any of this.
