So yeah, I've taken that big decision to finally be out&proud as ftm to my folks. How do I write a letter to them and what should I include? This is all so scary and confusing, the rising dysphoria doesn't help either. I'm a teenager and I'm still going through puberty, or at least haven't finished going through it. A little background info: My mother thinks that I'm a lesbian/Bi. My stepdad doesn't know about my sexuality. I've had bad and rising physical and social dysphoria for about 2 years now. I have had my hair cut short. My parents are in no way homophobic, I don't know about transphobia but it is highly unlikely. There are no religious beliefs which would cause any complications. I'm mildly scared anyway, I don't know how or when to come out. Other: I came out to some close friends at school, most reacted supportive apart from my girlfriend. She wasn't hateful but she refuses to even slightly use my preferred pronouns, name and continues to call me female even when in private or when texting. That's all. Thank you and I hope I'll get a little help. :icon_bigg
