A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Realizing that your old sister is not why your mom is angry at your dad's late in life sudden pro-choice stance. (reddthat.com)

Wait, what?

Your dad is prochoice because your sister is now sexually active. I understand that.

But is your mom mad because she wanted an abortion and your dad refused? Meaning either you, your sister or both were unwanted pregnancies?

Wild guess, reading between the lines:

Dad had an extramarital affair. His squeeze got preggers. Dad is suddenly pro-choice.

Mom finds out about the affair and the pregnancy and is now mad at dad.

OP only knows what his parents have shared, intentionally or not.

Thanks. I think that's probably it. I couldn't really piece it together either.
