Deep breaths. It'll be over soon. Personally I've discovered that responding to inappropriate question with Technicolor graphic detail shuts them right down.
Mom: "Santa likes having as many helpers as he can."
Step-brother: "Bend over, I'll show you."
Dad. Well, I seem to remember that he was quite supportive of you when you had surgery a couple of years ago. So I'm guessing that this was the booze talking.
But, more big hugs to you. You really will be able to look back on this and laugh someday.
FWIW, I honestly don't get how my parents still think I'm straight umpteen years after coming out, too. They aren't quite as bad, but my mother does keep grilling me about girlfriends and babies.
