A teenager who goes by Charlie on Twitter has shared her incredible comeback to an aunt’s rabidly homophobic text monologue.
Charlie explains, “I got into a fight w my auntie and she said ‘at least I don’t have to worry about my kid being a f*ggot like your mum does’.”
Her aunt’s response
You need to stop being so sensitive I did not mean faggot in a bag way I just mean you gay people have a lot of drama.”
“I tried to understand this bi shit you claim to be but you teenagers make stuff up all the time. Youre young you will find a man. You can change.
“If you think you cant accept my help dont come to Indies birthday I do not want you ruining the day.”
To her credit, Charlie didn’t let these comments slide — not even.

Charlie explained her side of things on Twitter:
I came on Twitter to vent…. the whole purpose of the thread was so I could let off some steam and actually laugh about how stupid it was.
“I don’t know how or why or when it blew up? It wasn’t my intention at all. I literally just wanted to scream about my ignorant family for a bit.
“Having a family that aren’t accepting is AWFUL and I would never use that for attention.
The teen added: “What I said to my aunt was horrible and I’ve never done anything like it before… I just snapped.”
