Do they know they're daughter is gay, because if so that's straight up terrible. Unfortunately homophobia is very popular in Africa due to colonialism and the pushing of Christianity and colonial values onto people, so much so that LGBT rights is seen as "western nonsense" despite African countries having openly gay kings before colonialism with no issue. Really sad stuff all round unfortunately.
Yeah as someone that lives in an African country (South Africa) that's closeted (bisexual) massive respect to her for being out, unironically o7. What a brave person. Hopefully it all works out somehow for both of you, dealing with all the bigotry is not fun at all.
Maybe it makes them feel better about themselves and like "one of the good people from a shithole country". That's all I got
