how do come out as pansexual to my family

[fluid bay]

my stepdad is kind of homophobic

and i am afraid what they will think of me

[tender patio]

are u independent or ?

like financially

[fluid bay]

no

i am a minor

[fluid bay]

OK

[hardy holly]

you don't have to come out

[hardy holly]

fear not this

if you think your stepdad or other family members could put your physical safety, emotional safety, mental health, security, or stability at risk then do not come out until they are unable to do so (i.e. when you're an adult and can live on your own)

worry not about what others think

ok thanks i felt like i had to come out to my family but now you made me feel like i do not have to thank you so much

[hardy holly]

btw coming out is like any decision

you weigh the pros and cons and you determine if the pros outweigh the cons
