No, mothers and daughter don't ALWAYS fight. Not all of them at least. That's a hint.... I'm just going to say, if you have to ask, then it probably was. I don't think there's any over-reacting, it's how you felt about it, how it made you feel, that makes it abuse or not. Of course, the abuser has something to do with it, what they did do, but if you think it could have been abuse, it probably was. But you'd have to say what exactly was said or done for anyone to be able to truly determine if it was abuse. But, I think that your parents shunning you for your sexuality is abusive and very hurtful. Acceptance of the real you is a basic human need, which seemly your parents denied to you.
