dude this is so relateable.. im queer myself and have always struggled with internalised homophobia and accepting myself (which im just starting to learn how to do) and my parents are somewhat supportive... i guess?? my dad is fine with gay people but he hates trans people and doesn't get any of the 'pronoun' stuff, my mum is quite a bit more supportive but doesn't really understand much since shes an immigrant. I haven't told either of them as well. People also tell me to wait until im 18 to be myself and whatnot and while 18 doesn't seem too far as a 15 year old, it still feels like a long time.. I understand the feeling of not feeling comfortable in your own skin. I'm not trans or anything, but i have always felt so weird in my own body like i never have felt quite right. I have tried going by he/him pronouns but that never felt right either. So for now i just go by she/they which right now feels right to me!! While I wish i had advice for you, sadly i also am figuring things out myself haha. I guess i just wrote all this to tell you that you are not alone. :) |

I can relate!!! Iām actually bisexual (maybe pan, idk? :p) and my whole family is homophobic, so Iām in the closet š¬. Also, my family is Muslim while Iām secretly atheist, and I just hate how my dad constantly wants my siblings and I to feel āsafeā around him when I canāt even express myself properly. My dad hates when I even wear eyeliner.Ā Also, I havenāt been on here in a while šāļø |

i can very much relate, my mom always makes faces when i try to talk sbout queer stuff, one time i was just mentioning lesbians and she didn't want my 5yo brother to hear, that was weird. Like ma'am that kid is obsessed with clothes and shoes, he wore your heels when he was like 3, wanted to get his nails painted and plays more with girls than with boys. I think he can handle lesbians.Ā Anyway bro it's gonna get better, my mom yelled at me a lot when she discovered i was trans, i've been trans for almost two years and now she passively accepts it at least. It's just a matter of time.Ā AppreciateĀ itĀ bro, hope everythings goin well. Very much agreed with the brother, if kids can learn about straight people then they should be able to learn about gay people as well. Kids will just accept that some people are different to themselves and move on. My mum yelled at me too haha, and cried. I've known almost my whole life and only told her about a year ago, and yeah I'm just hoping she'll understand eventually. :] by michaelmassacre; ; Report |
