I literally came out to my dad today and he said, “you’re still my son and I’ll love you no matter what.” I cried so hard because I didn’t think he would because he’s a very religious man.
Childish, ditto. I was terrified that my radical rightwing religious authoritarian dictator father would reject me. I was shocked when he said those exact words. . . I guess we are blessed beyond understanding.
As a dad who is gay, I came out to my sons..they were sooooo supportive. They even attended my gay wedding. That is so great guys. Proud of your dads. LOVE IS LOVE, NO MATTER WHAT!
Did anyone catch how incredibly sad Dad got when talking about his gay brother that is no longer here? He was fighting back tears. Right in the feels for me...
Your dad is the kind of father every gay guy ought to have, even though many of us don’t (or didn’t). It’s clear that he loves you and that you love him, and that’s very nice to see.
Hey Chris. Was checking out some of your older stuff. Saw you signing onto Crawford's onlyfans. You were talking about posing for nudes. Haven't signed up for your only fans yet I'll do that after I write this. Anyway. If you discover a photographer that you're totally comfortable with and they're creative (I specifically chose a guy for different reasons) posing nude is actually fun and a great experience. You'll also have a fantastic collection for future posts so I'd do several themes. Just my advice. Cheers!
What an awesome Dad! I'm in the Northeast too. My being gay is the one thing my dad doesn't really want to hear about. He knows; he accepts it; but he's also tacitly uncomfortable with it. Not in a hateful way, but in a "I just can't understand what you get out of it" way. Well Dad, I don't know what I get out of it either. It's just what I am.
Yeah, the football (soccer) is VERY homophobic. but only the masculine, the feminine soccer is very accepting. There is also a lot of misogyny. I tell you as a person who lives in a country where soccer is everything...
I'm 62 and didn't come out till my mid 40s also a believer and your dad speaks truth. Love your sense of humor. Makes my day. He is right be yourself and the people who are your true friends will stick with you those that don't were never your friends to begin with. Take care, enjoy life we only get one run at it. 🇨🇦
What a sweet video! Thanks to your dad from all of us not so lucky. Hope you are feeling better and appreciate all of your efforts to give us content. You are obviously well loved.
Your dad seems super chill and friendly! It was cool to see him in a video! Hopefully he is in more in the future! So since you’ve had both my future mother/father-in-law in videos. What about a videos with your brothers? 😊
Chris! I can see why you have such a level head on your adorable shoulders. Your dad is amazing. Make sure you take the time to really cherish the obvious awesome relationship you two have. Never take it for granted bro!
Chris, What an awesome Dad! I often wondered when watching your videos about your Dad and his take on you being gay. To have the tremendous support of not only Mommastan but Dadstan (?) as well makes me so happy for you. I wish my parents were as accepting as yours. But alas, sadly, not all parents are alike in that regard. Drew
Your dad seems like a really kind, respectful and down to earth dude. I can tell he's done a really amazing job raising you with great morals. You're very lucky to have him 💛
You are VERY fortunate to have a father like him. Mine would go out of his way to tell Gay jokes or find a reason to use the word fag whenever I was around.
Your father is very level headed and said some very true words there. I came out in 1990 and my father had a real struggle for years about my sexuality. He finally accepted my lifestyle and my husband, and would come and visit us in our home for holidays.18 months ago he sat me down and told me how proud of me he was, and how lovely my life and home is. (Nearly 30 years later) Then last may my father passed away and living in a different country to him, I couldn’t attend his funeral because of COVID 19 and lockdown. Moral of my story is, enjoy every precious moment with your father and just be yourself, cause don’t forget, he helped create you. Make your father proud too. Peace and love to all.
I got a lot to say first of all. Your Dad is a gem, he should take his opinions and preach them to the masses. Would welcome further videos featuring your dad. Now for some questions. Will we ever get your mom's take on those very questions? Sorry your uncle passed away, what did he die from? Also the meaning of your name stanchris, and what do you mean when you say we stan? Now for other things I hope you're over covid, sorry you got infected. Stay strong, Stay sexy, and Stay golden
I absolutely love this. It's amazing to have parents who accept their children. I remember coming out to my uncle, who was practically my dad and raised me. He said "I'm so honored you know you can express who you are to me. But I've known since you were 10" 🤣🤣
What an awesome dad. Now you two need to start hugging. Chris looks so nervous and wanted that video to be done but how come you couldn’t even look at him?
Good Dad. Thats how you do. I volunteered at gay switchboard in philly during the 90s....cried with a lot of boys about this... Parents never even think about putting your kids thru that hell, its lifetime damage (parents Its NOT about YOU btw). The good news is FAM is where you find it. We hold our good friends very close. #HAPPYPRIDE
How about a video where you and your dad do something together that he likes but isn't usually your thing, then you do something you like that isn't his thing. Like a fishing trip then a shopping trip.
Your Dad has real pearls of wisdom. Some Dads have their stuff really together. That obligates you to keep your stuff together and contribute to your various communities, especially if you become a father.
You, and your Dad, are amazing. You are fortunate to have him. Find ways to tell him, often. I’m curious to know how he earns a living, and how he relates to others. He is one of those guys who has wisdom, irrespective of formal education or life experiences. He obviously loves you very, very much. I can see where you get the best elements of your individuality and personality.
Great video and wish more parents was like that. That’s for sure a nice thing to see hoping one day all parents could be like that in not thinking anything of it
Great responses, Dad! Wish there were many more like you. I wish that gay kids could have real community support. There should by safe places and people who can chat and give gay kids an ear to listen and help them figure it out. Having someone to turn to can help decrease sadness and lonliness and encourage them to grow. Thanks Chris for sharing this video. I think of all your video topics this one ranks in the top 3 for relevant, impactful content.
Omg im admiring you soo much.. i wish i could talk about that topic with my parents so easily.. im not even outed to them yet... youre kindof a role model for me xd keep on producing such great content in the future 🔥🔥
Hey Chris u know, ur so lucky ur parents are really accepting... My parents at least my mom can be understanding.. But my dad thinks tht idk how to identify my sexuality. And plus its even because I come from a religious family, and my father is really religious I tried explaining it to him tht if people are in love, there's no sin in it irrespective of thier gender. Love has no labels anybody can love. He just doesn't understand tht🥺😢
Your Dad is awesome! Unfortunately my Dad passed away a month before I came out. But I know he’s looking down from heaven in complete acceptance! Your Dads rad! Your lucky!
My father reacted badly with me being Gay, and I never got over how he reacted, even though I think he got over his issues with me being Gay, I never shared anything personal with him, and my relationship remained superficial and a bit distant. He hurt emotionally, and I was never able to trust him or feel safe in being open with him. It's really sad. I'm so happy for you Chris, in having supportive and loving parents. You're blessed
When I came out as bi to my father he gave me the most heartbroken look. Then he said “a-are you are? I mean I know u r but when? How?” I was jus in such an embarrassed moment. I didn’t even wanna go downstairs to eat dinner afterwards. He never treated me different but Ik it wa shard for him. My sister apparently started defending me and yelling at him to talk and she stood up for me. A few weeks go by and he finally comes back and says “I’m sorry if I didn’t react the way u expected or if it was hard. This is a late response and I may not approve but that doesn’t mean I can’t accept it. Ur still my son and I will always live u”
My Dad was ex military, built houses, very macho, a quiet man, but us kids knew the rules & boundaries, & the consequences. My Mom was very religious, & kind of a control freak. I expected my world to end when I came out to them. The reason I came out was, I had a bf & I wanted them to meet him, & hopefully accept him. A friend suggested I take them for dinner & after dinner but still in the restaurant, tell them. Most ppl won't make a big scene in public. So .... that's what I did. Mom sat quietly for a few minutes (never a good sign), then she said "Well, we always knew this, but you should talk to your brother _____ because we think he's gay too & needs to deal with it". The she & i had a go around about this being about me, not him, blah blah blah. I turned to Dad & asked him if he had anything to say. I expected the worst. He said "Are you happy?" I told him yes, & about my bf I'd been living with etc. He said "You do what you have to do in your life to be you're happy!" That was it. Nothing was ever said again. They made my boyfriend welcome, let us sleep together when we visited my parents, treated him like part of the family. It was all normal, loving, accepting, as a family should be.
Was a nice video, your dad is cool, glad you had the support 🙂 I would love to see more of you guys hanging out together, maybe doing something in the yard? Glad to see you look to have made a full recovery and look in good health! * hugs *
My Mom and my older sister know that I'm Bi for a week now... The only left is my Dad and I can just hope he will be 1/10 as open minded as your Dad Chris ! I really dont know how I will do this for now pfffff
Love to know more about uncle. Maybe Dad could tell us his story and share his life with us? Chris, you are so fortunate to have such an amazing Dad. Many of us do not.
You have a good dad. I came out decades ago in another world. My family didn’t speak to me for five years. You are blessed to have the father you have. ❤️
Man, how times have changed. When I was your age, things were different. After my mother discovered me fooling around with another boy, ... well I never saw him again. He had disappeared from my home town. I wasn’t even aware that I was gay at that moment. I envy you.
Thank you for finally having your dad on your channel. I hung around with a Richard Stanley from Bay city Michigan and always thought that was the uncle u spoke about😁
they will be! i might even upload an extra video this weekend. I am officially fully better i think, we filmed this when we both actually had just gotten over covid.
Chris, I am very lucky that I can relate to you regarding this topic. Both my parents actually were VERY accepting. At the age of 18 in 1989, I decided to tell them over lunch. They were both at the table eating, I stood beside the table and told them I have something to tell you, I'm gay. They stopped chewing, turned to each other then back to me and the only thing my dad said was "we know, we knew, we love you no matter what, now, since you're already standing, can you get the mustard out of the fridge for me?. I come from a fun, joking, sarcasm is our family motto kind of family. So we all laughed a little and that was it. They NEVER treated me any different...ever.
Glad to see he is very comfortable with you being gay. When I came out August 4th (of this year), I expected some negative responses. Shockingly, no one was negative and both of my parents accepted it. So... it's possible that I might have been closeted for 15 years for no reason! Love you dude and keep doing what you do.
I literally came out to my dad today and he said, “you’re still my son and I’ll love you no matter what.” I cried so hard because I didn’t think he would because he’s a very religious man.
Childish, ditto. I was terrified that my radical rightwing religious authoritarian dictator father would reject me. I was shocked when he said those exact words. . . I guess we are blessed beyond understanding.
As a dad who is gay, I came out to my sons..they were sooooo supportive. They even attended my gay wedding. That is so great guys. Proud of your dads. LOVE IS LOVE, NO MATTER WHAT!
@@kenjiyamaha2879 bruh
i am extremely happy for you💖
I'm so proud of you! Much love
Did anyone catch how incredibly sad Dad got when talking about his gay brother that is no longer here? He was fighting back tears. Right in the feels for me...
Your dad is the kind of father every gay guy ought to have, even though many of us don’t (or didn’t). It’s clear that he loves you and that you love him, and that’s very nice to see.
"We're all different, we all have special gifts. Don't ever let anybody take that away from you" >>> love this !!!
Hey Chris. Was checking out some of your older stuff. Saw you signing onto Crawford's onlyfans. You were talking about posing for nudes. Haven't signed up for your only fans yet I'll do that after I write this. Anyway. If you discover a photographer that you're totally comfortable with and they're creative (I specifically chose a guy for different reasons) posing nude is actually fun and a great experience. You'll also have a fantastic collection for future posts so I'd do several themes. Just my advice. Cheers!
Your dad is a cool dude your lucky to have him
@@ryverOSX increíble!🤩
Truly a great man, your father...
Papa Stan is an awesome dad ......he stans. You have given him every reason to be proud of you and he is very proud: "You are an awesome kid."
You're fortunate to have such a great dad!!! 🧡💛💚💙💜
right i got so lucky!
Where is the red heart?
Glad you’re dad was so open and embraced you as you are.
I admire your dad for being so supportive of you.
What an awesome Dad! I'm in the Northeast too. My being gay is the one thing my dad doesn't really want to hear about. He knows; he accepts it; but he's also tacitly uncomfortable with it. Not in a hateful way, but in a "I just can't understand what you get out of it" way. Well Dad, I don't know what I get out of it either. It's just what I am.
There's never just one gay guy on a soccer team.
Yeah, the football (soccer) is VERY homophobic. but only the masculine, the feminine soccer is very accepting. There is also a lot of misogyny. I tell you as a person who lives in a country where soccer is everything...
@@denaroth7296 got you and confirm!🙃
Looking forward to this. I've only seen Mr. Stanley once before. It was on TikTok and he was being scared with balloon rockets :)
Dad is so cool...no wonder you seem so grounded and “yourself”! Nice vid
I'm 62 and didn't come out till my mid 40s also a believer and your dad speaks truth. Love your sense of humor. Makes my day. He is right be yourself and the people who are your true friends will stick with you those that don't were never your friends to begin with. Take care, enjoy life we only get one run at it. 🇨🇦
Papa Stanley is very wise. We need more like him in this world.
What a sweet video! Thanks to your dad from all of us not so lucky. Hope you are feeling better and appreciate all of your efforts to give us content. You are obviously well loved.
Your dad is so cool. He’s such an awesome dad
"it is what it is kid" - loving that chill vibe from your dad
My dad said "How did this happen...I (he) was in the military" Huh? Now this was back in the 70's so a different time and era.
Looking forward to sharing this moment with you. 💙
After: Awesome video! Your dad is so kind and genuine. It's obvious he is very proud of you Chris!
Kid I hope you understand and appreciate how lucky you are to have parents that get you and love you! Stay safe.
Your dad is awesome and I am so glad you two have each other Chris. Thanks for an awesome introduction to him.
I would like to know more about how you were treated by your soccer team when you came out and what impact that had on you.
tea. i mention it a little in my coming out vid but good idea
Your dad seems super chill and friendly! It was cool to see him in a video! Hopefully he is in more in the future! So since you’ve had both my future mother/father-in-law in videos. What about a videos with your brothers? 😊
Your dad is the best. I love this guy and I don't even know him, god bless him.
Chris! I can see why you have such a level head on your adorable shoulders. Your dad is amazing. Make sure you take the time to really cherish the obvious awesome relationship you two have. Never take it for granted bro!
Thanks!
Chris, You are soooo lucky to have a dad that is so understanding, supportive and loving. KUDOS to you both...
Give him a Dad of the Year award. Amazing.
Awe, your dad had some really sweet things to say!

Your dad is amazing... I haven't spoken to or seen my dad in decades... he cut me off when my parents got divorced when I was 16
Chris, You have a great dad!!!! He reminds me a lot of mine, they both have the same outlook, were the lucky ones!!!
You're so handsome Chris!
You are literally the cutest...awesome your dad is supportive

Thanks to you and your Dad for sharing this with us. It will help others! See how popular you are, nearly 3500 views in just 4 hours.
You have awesome dad! More dads need to be accepting of their children like him! God bless him and you!
I am in love with your dad. And as soon as I thought, "I'd like to hear this man more", there appeared "want more vids with my dad?"
More dad stuff please. We need more ten out of ten dads like this.
You have a good dad. I came out decades ago in another world. My family didn’t speak to me for five years. You are blessed to have the father you have. ❤️
What a wonderful guy. I love his response, how beautiful!!! Nicely, said.
What a special Dad you have...appreciate him, cause it is rare !
Chris i can see why you're such a great guy! Your dad is a good man, a really good man, cherish that.
Looking forward to this
I would love to see more videos with your mom and dad. They are so awesome. You are very fortunate.
Wow, your dad is a great guy! I wish all gay people had such an accepting dad. You should def feature more of him 💯👍👏
Man, how times have changed. When I was your age, things were different. After my mother discovered me fooling around with another boy, ... well I never saw him again. He had disappeared from my home town. I wasn’t even aware that I was gay at that moment.
I envy you.
North East - so true except for maybe California. Here in the South, being gay can be difficult. Also, Your Dad is great.
Thank you for finally having your dad on your channel. I hung around with a Richard Stanley from Bay city Michigan and always thought that was the uncle u spoke about😁
omg i love ur dad hes the sweetest
I hope this goes in a positive direction. Btw, love you so frickin much ❤️
Hope you are better
Thank you i am so much better
Your dad explained it very well . You have a awesome Dad .
I would love to see longer videos
they will be! i might even upload an extra video this weekend. I am officially fully better i think, we filmed this when we both actually had just gotten over covid.
@@StanChris thanks Chris. My heart is with you and your family 👍
It must have boosted your confidence to hear those words from Dad. I wish I was as lucky.
Chris, I am very lucky that I can relate to you regarding this topic. Both my parents actually were VERY accepting. At the age of 18 in 1989, I decided to tell them over lunch.
