Hi!My gfs fam doesnt know Im trans, we've been together for 9months,smh they think im part asian & thats why I look like 13(Im 20 and pre-T).I thought they were joking,but they asked her if she needs birth control & her dad doesnt let us sleep together. Im rlly happy but my mom asked me when are we going to tell them, & idk bc they aren't pro-lgbt and since my partner lives in their house & her dad droves her If theyre against us our relationship might be affected Should we tell them?Or wait?
It should be up to you (and your partner, I suppose) to decide if you want to come out to her parents or not. And if so, when you want to do so.
It’s not too uncommon to wait with coming out until you’ve put a bit of distance between you and the people you know are bigoted. I didn’t come out until I’d moved away from home. Recently I’ve got in touch with a lesbian couple who are just playing it off to their parents as if they are close friends, but who want to come out when they have a flat of their own.
If you feel that it would be unsafe / would damage your relationship to come out right now, you’re absolutely allowed to put it off until later.
