Reading together is supposed to be fun, but I find it excruciating.
I’m a teenager, assigned male at birth. However, since last June, I have been questioning my gender identity. I tried coming out to my parents in July, but it went badly. It wasn’t that they were transphobic. They said that they loved me no matter what, but that they think I am simply confused and that I have gotten the idea of being trans in my head from reading about it online. After this, I tried to suppress the idea of being trans.
Your parents are partway there: they did not reject you—they did not throw you out of the house or lose their minds when you came out to them the first time. But they did not do what I wish they had done, which was to be wholly supportive of you, to listen without judgment, to envelope you in their love, andto dismiss what you told them. They think they know more than they do, but it’s very clear they don’t know a thing about this.There is no timetable for your coming out to them again.
