I think my parents are OK but I don't want to take any big risks. I'm still a minor

I'd also recommend seeing what sort of laws are in your state. Do you know any family that is confirmed to be cool around "the gays"?

Also, I just really wanted to comment because i want you to know that you're not alone out there, and that theres a lot of solace you can find on spaces like these. Tumblr and Reddit were formative for me even though i began identifying as nonbinary yesrs later.

Lastly is there a Gay-Straight Alliance (or the more forward names they call em now but i forget) at your school? Joining a safe space could also help a lot in terms of mental health without necessarily coming out to your parents.

Laws are among the best in the world. No confirmed family support

He's fine with lgb believes being trans is mental illness. Unaccepting of NB

😬 cringe

The "lgb" group is kidding themselves if they think by helping the right wing go after gender identity they'll be spared from the culling.

I find that with people who think like that, they can have that view softened up alot if you try and actually ask them to articulate why they think it's a mental illness, but specifically you have to act innocent about it, like you don't understand why it would be a mental illness and you'd like him to explain it to you.

Their response to that can also help inform future steps.
