Lumko Johnson took to Twitter to break down some examples of how LGBTQ+l people are treated at home.Former YoTV presenter Lumko Johnson took to social media to express his disappointment and disgust towards family members that"tolerate" other family members who are part of the LGBTQ+ community.
The presenter, whose Twitter thread was prompted by Loyiso Bala's viral birthday message to his younger and openly gay brother Phelo Bala, said the way he saw it, almost all members of the LGBTQ+ had a family member"like Loyiso". "We're so used to family members like Loyiso. So used to being 'tolerated'. We're so used to tolerating, because"it's not that bad". So used to the"it's not my place to judge". So used to the conditional acceptance, perpetual disapproval because my life goes against your values," he started.
Lumko explained that most gay people had no choice but to accept and live with"conditional acceptance" because they were subjected to this treatment by people they loved. We're so used to being the ones who have to adjust our behaviour at family gatherings. So used to being hidden from peoples families. We're so used to accepting your bigotry as 'religion', 'tradition', 'culture'. We all know those people who make our queerness about them...He added that religion, culture, traditions were among the many other elements that enforced this behaviour.
