Okay so I came out a few times, for a few different things, but I’m gonna skip right to coming out as trans. If you want to know what to expect it REALLY has a lot to do with how your family already views the lgbt community. Especially when coming out as trans. My family was never homophobic (well not my parents at least). So I wasn’t worried about them being too mad. I was more worried they wouldn’t understand or wouldn’t believe me. I didn’t intentionally come out to my mom, it was an accident. I told her a joke I’d made to a classmate that had to do with me being a guy. Which she then asked “wait so you’re a guy?” To which I responded an anxious ‘yes?’ She made a comment about me changing my mind a lot, as I’d previously come out as genderqueer and was having an ongoing sexuality crisis, and then said something about not being great at changing pronouns. I then came out to my dad that night by asking ‘how’s it feel to have three sons?’(I’ve got two brothers). To which he responded ‘oh?’ And then ‘okay then’ before getting back to his movie.
