Hey ! Okay. There’s a pride in one week in my town. The thing is that it happens during a weekend. And during weekends, I’m stuck at my dad’s house. He lives far from the downtown (centre of the city in English I guess ?), and he’s overprotective. He’ll NEVER lemme go somewhere alone (I’m turning 15 rlly soon and he still accompany me on the way to school (only Mondays hopefully)). And, worst of all, he’s damn LGBTphobic. I just invented a friend to talk to him about this fictional friend’s (it’s me, disguised as someone else to test his reactions) trangenderism and gender dysphoria, and he (my dad) ended up really agressive. But I definitely wanna go to this pride. To meet people like y’all but irl. What do I do ?

I dont wanna say the wrong thing incase smth goes wrong but all i can think of is too just tell him. what is he gonna do? not support his daughter? i mean i think his care for his children would outweigh his hatred/phobia of lgbtq. but idk the guy so i cant say so for sure

If he is transphobic and/or homophobic, please do not come out. It's not safe, wait until you move out and then if you still want to come out to him you should.

# wary marlin If he homophobic is gay

You're thinking of homosexual. Homophobic means discrimination against, aversion to, or irrational fear of someone's sexual orientation. Specificaly gay, lesbian, or bisexual people.

Well, tbh. This was the wrong forum. It’s not about coming out. It’s about finding a way to go to the pride.
