I have been transmasc (AKA ftm) for 2 years. My grandparents are really catholic and homophobic. I have recently came out to them as transmasc and told them my preferred name and pronouns. They have never used my chosen name only my deadname and will not use my correct pronouns. I have corrected them many times and yet they still do it. I'm scared to tell my parents about what they're doing. My parents are not religious and doesn't really care if I'm male or female. They love and accpect me as they're son. My grandparents just won't. They call me they're granddaughter when I'm not a girl I'm a boy. It hurts to know that they will never accept me as they're grandson. And I know others have worse things going on and shit like that I just needed to get that off my chest.

You should tell your parents that your grandparents are making you uncomfortable calling you by your deadname and wrong pronouns your grandparents might respect your parents more becouse they're adults and they might be willing to change the way they talk to you
