I need help here

[verbal jasper]

so I really want, and probably need, to come out to my family that I'm pansexual and may or may not be nonbinary/genderfluid, does anybody have any tips that could help?

[north rapids]

Hi!! Pansexual and genderfluid person here!!
Any way I can help?

[verbal jasper]

Sorry for the late response, I just need some help coming out to my family

[north rapids]

First things first I would try to test the waters to know if they aren't homophobic first

To be careful

[verbal jasper]

Mhm

I know my mom isn't but I'm not too sure about my dad

[north rapids]

Okay, its good that you know your mom is fine, then probably test the waters with your dad, or come out to your mom first and ask her if she would know

[primal valve]

i agree, i didn't check with anyone i knew being homophobic, i told all my friends, they seemed okay with it, but i live in a relatively homophobic part of europe so i lost most of my friends, that's why you should always check if people are homophobic before coming out to them

[verbal jasper]

That seems to be a good idea

[verbal jasper]

Oh I'm sorry:[

[north rapids]

Agreed.
Especially with parents and family if you aren't 18 and able to find for yourself

[verbal jasper]

Yeah

[primal valve]

i have supportive friends now

[verbal jasper]

Oh good

[north rapids]

Thats good at least

[primal valve]

i don't understand why aroace people experience homophobia, none of their "logic" can be applied to aroace people

[north rapids]

I only came out to my mom first because my trans friend convinced me and stood by me when I told her
It was at an after-school that she was helping with

[north rapids]

Im sorry what- my brain is not processing and I want to understand what you are trying to say (Im Ace is why)

[verbal jasper]

Well thanks you both for helping me, I'm gonna let tall have that conversation now lol

[primal valve]

i'm saying i don't see why us aroace people experience homophobia, their excuses make even less sense with aroace people

that's what i'm trying to say

[north rapids]

OH I get it now
And its because they so homophobic any terms for lgbtq sets them off

[north rapids]

Have wha-

[verbal jasper]

Let y'all have that conversation*
About the aroace thi v

Thing*

[north rapids]

OH
