My entire life my dad has been rlly anti-LGBTQIAP+, and it was only this year that I discovered holy crap im not straight anymore. He’s always talking abt how trans ppl are a “governmental scheme”, and I’m losing patience. Ntm, my mom is a semi-ally, but shes also got the mentality that its merely LGBT (and even then somewhat only LGT), and I feel like I’d be betraying my family (entirely christian god loving americans). The only real ally in my family is my sister, and even then, idk….

Ntm, I have a cousin my age who thinks hes a complete hotshot so theres some definite resentment. Also, my dad always talks about girls in a very provocative manner, so that’s also a thing. I feel like my family would crumble if they knew, but I don’t know. I can’t lie, and my mom almost found out because of my bio and she unfortunately thought it was a joke. She attributes orientation and sexual activity in the same vain.

(Btw im omniromantic & casssexual)

That really is a shitty situation. It can be very hard to try to convince queerphobic people otherwise. Maybe you could have a serious talk with your mother first since she might understand better (I'd suggest actually settling on a specific time and date so you both have enough time to focus on your talk). You should tell her exactly how you feel about yourself, about her behavior and about your father's mentality and how that effects you. You can also write down what you want to say beforehand, so you don't forget anything.
But please remember: Your feelings are valid. You matter. If your family does get mad at you and tells you terrible things: Remember that you are NOT wrong. Just because they are your family, they don't have the right to treat you like that.
Regardless, that situation sounds super complicated and not easy to handle. Especially when it comes to religion and queerness. No matter what happens, you are not alone. And never forget who you are, what your rights are and that you MATTER. I hope everything will go well with you and your family ❤️
