Gay Teen Asks Friend’s Mom If He Can Come To Girls-Only Sleepover And Her Response Wins The Internet

Everybody loves sleepovers, and Mason Brian Barclay is no exception, but the teenager, who identifies as gay, had a slight problem when he wanted to stay over at his friend’s house recently. His new BFF, Houston Shelton, was having a sleepover, but her parents have a strict no opposite-sex rule, which meant that only girls were allowed.

Not to be deterred however, Mason decided to write to Houston’s mom to make his case as to why he should be allowed to attend. “Hey Mrs. Shelton! This is Mason Brian Barclay, I am one of Houstons new bestffriends. If she had people over on Friday, would I, a very homosexual male, be able to take part in the sleepover.” How did Mrs Shelton respond? Scroll down to see the conversation for yourself, which Mason recently shared on twitter.

    Awww...if that is his friend group and he is allowed to be included, so much the better. Good friends are a wonderful thing.

    I never really got this. Just because he is a guy, even if he was hetero, that wouldn't mean he would instantly sleep with the girl... I mean, I've slept in the same bed as guys at sleepovers (my parents knew, and completely agreed to it) since I can remember. And I've never slept with any of them. And if I wanted to, then why not? I think it's more important to educate your child on safe sex rather than forbidding it...

    I can think of lots of reasons not to have sex with someone...doesn't matter if I happen to be sleeping in the same bed as them. There are many many many reasons "why not..."

    If she was worried about her 'hot husband' should she not be concerned about all of her daughters female friends?

    I believe she meant it as a joke telling him that he was more than welcome. It wasn't meant to be rude or hurtful. Thankfully the young man realized this and reacted appropriately

    I’m bisexual, so basically sleepovers aren’t an option anymore. :(
