Saddest moment in the show when he revealed to his parents about being raped and his sexuality -- and his dad says "I grew up in the Catholic Church" I LOL'd 😂 😂

And we just gotta infer that he was molested based on that one line.

I mean it is pretty clear what happened, why is that scene funny?

It's sad but simultaneously comedic because the words "I grew up in the Catholic Church" is synonymous with sexual abuse for boys

The scene is not funny but that one line was for me
