How do I come out to my parents? They’re Christian so I don’t know how they’ll take it. I want to get HRT as soon as possible but ofc I can’t do that without my parent’s permission, but it’s expensive and they’ve shown history of hating trans people (they made me watch transphobic slop 🥲)
I haven’t even told them my true pronouns/the name I want to go by, and i internally since whenever they use feminine terms/use she her/deadname me but I never say anything. Advice? Should I just stay in the closet until I’m 18?

honestly yea probably just stay in the closet till your 18
Thought so
I’m just worried that gender-affirming care might be banned by the time I’m 18 😭
im worried about that too, but with transphobic parents who won't let you get it, i don't think theres much you can do but hope for the best
I think the Supreme Court would ruled that as unconstitutional since you would be an adult. But idk they’re literally considering of overturning same-sex marriage.
They’re expected to make a decision on whether or not to take the case in October btw
With the way things are going I wouldn’t be surprised if they did
yea
Yeah same
I semi-confirmed (without coming out) that my family is indeed VERY anti-lgbtq
Yeah they’d go ham if they knew I’m trans
wish you good luck
Dang that’s sucks I wish they were more supportive or at least would respect it.
Whyyyy oh why did my parents have to be transphobic
Can’t expect anything like that from a Christian family I fear
Fortunately though they don’t know I’m trans
Would telling my therapist do anything
Yeah
Yeah
then i would say go for it
I agree
I’m just glad that at least my parents respect that I don’t like feminine things
at least theres that
I’m being REAL risky by making trans-themed items for myself,,,
I do t think they would recognize it,,,hopefully
just be careful
It sucks that I have to hide my gender identity like it’s my secret boyfriend or something
Yeah I absolutely agree that’s it’s sucks
My mom thinks I’m a lgbtq but in a completely different way omgosh
She thinks I’m a lesbian
And she had this whole like meltdown cuz she’s worried that I’m gay
Well, now I DEFINITELY won’t come out 😭
Especially not as trans, she literally told me that me being trans is her worst nightmare
Sigh
What did you say to her after she said this?
Well, I told her that I’m “not trans” and “not lesbian” and that I “don’t” support lgbtq
(All of these are lies.)
Well except for the lesbian part
Yeah makes sense especially for your safety.
Question do you have Discord as a lock app? And is your device password strong and your family doesn’t know it?
Or do you just log out and log back in like every time?
No, how do you that?
I’m always logged into my discord
Do you have a iPhone?
I mean I’m pretty sure it’s not just a iPhone thing btw
Yeah
Well I would give you a link but I don’t have enough levels in this server apparently to sent you a link.
It’s was just a Apple Support page
Well this is the title of it: “Lock or hide an app on iPhone” so just Google that.
