How do I come out to my parents as a trans demiboy? I have a trans aunt and she knows my mom isn't transphobic at all but I don't know much about what my dad thinks. I know he's supportive of my aunt so that's reassuring, but I'm scared that because it's their own child they won't understand. And honestly how do I tell them that I'm like 25% nonbinary while 75% trans masc or on other days it can be swapped etc; I feel like they will be supportive but I'm scared that they won't support because I'm their child rather than their friend or sister for example. I'm just scared but I'm like prepared for everything. I just don't know how to come out or explain to my parents exactly what it is/what I am. Anything will help :)

I think you should first think of what you should do if they dont support (even if you dont think its likely) for example, get a plan on where to go if they kick you out like extended families house (tell them before) and prepare what you want to say (like a speech) so you dont seem as nervous when saying it, maybe first come out as trans and if they react well, try and educate them on what demiboy is and means, (sorry im not very good with giving tips on coming out as I haven't yet)
Like I don't think they'd kick me out over it that's like EXTREMELY out of character for my parents, and idk how well making a speech would be too I'm like the shittiest speaker but that's definitely an option but I like what you mean with the "come out as trans then explain Demi later" thing :) thanks
yeah yw!! just some ideas i you liked any you could've used, i hope coming out goes well when/if you do!!
