I'm a queer boy, and in a qpr with my close friend (genderfluid). We are slowly approaching our 1 year anniversary, so I want to come out to my parents so we can be more open about our relationship. I worry that if they know, they'll stop me from being in a qpr with my partner, or even being friends with them. I can't ask for my partner to pretend to be female (because it's plain wrong and also cause their dysphoria can get really bad). Sadly, my parents are extremely homophobic, and even didn't want me to join a Social Studies course in school because the subject overview talked about teaching 'contemporary' things in class. I asked what this meant to them, and they said 'rainbow rainbow things'. I get so angry at them, but always try to hide it, because they are still good people if you ignore their homophobia. What should I do?
#How do I come out to my Catholic homophobic parents?

my dad is the same way so i get it but u should not tell them until u have other connections, like a college dorm, jst in case things dont go as planed even though im not in college yet i have been told by some people in the server to do this and it helped me. even though im not a boy myself i can tell u that u should jst be urself and jst hope for the best. i hope this helps

I still have 2 years until I graduate high school, so I have a ways to go before university. Either way, thanks for the support. I'm probably just going to try and keep it under wraps until I move out, then somewhat distance myself from them. Thanks anyway!
