Any clue how to tell my dad I'm trans?
So.. I feel like here might actually be better/less negative than /lgbt/ somehow, so.. I'm gonna ask here.

F/21/UK. Y'see, I'm probably trans (MtF), and I've got a few family members standing in my way for it, and I want to know what might be the best way to address it to them? Mostly my dad, because he loves me, but he's said before that the second worst thing I could be is trans, and idk how to break the news to him. (Before you ask, 1st worst thing is being a pedophile which is understandable.)

Please be nice to me, I'm not very emotionally or mentally stable at the moment

Are you on estrogen already?

Since he already said he wouldn't like you being trans, I'd say if you want to tell him then you should, but before that maybe talk to a friend or other family member about possibly staying at their place for a bit, just incase your dad freaks out and tells you to leave so then you have a place to stay, not saying that will happen but it doesn't hurt to be prepared.
Also maybe look at other stories of people coming out to their parents to see how to go about it.

This is one of the worst boards you can ask for transgender related advice because 99% of posts will tell you to kill yourself

Do not disclose and disappear from his life as soon as you can

Imagine yourself as this picture and ask yourself, do I really feel like a woman?

Going to be realistic with you chief:
>Best case scenario: it crushes his soul entirely but he keeps to himself, having suspected it for a while
>Worst case scenario: he will get violent and take it out on you
The only way it doesn't turn out like that is if you confess to him not as being trans, but that you feel like you might be and want therapy+anti-psychotics to help treat those feelings. But even that will hurt him on some level, and I doubt you'd take that route anyway.

just don't if you can help it. most of my family don't know I'm bisexual because there's still an extreme stigma throughout my family at the mere possibility of even being gay.

Sadly no. I've got many mental disabilities and he's kinda the one taking care of my medical stuff. It's why I need to tell him ;w;

>>82301543
My plan is to get my sister, brother and mother around at the same time to break the news to him in case he does get all like that, but I have a feeling he might limit my life a bit because of it.


>>82301590
I don't think he'll get violent with me. He's said that even if anyone in my family did heinous shit he'd still love them, and I mean, one of my brothers is a crazy narcissistic asshole and he's put up with it. I feel that if he can deal with a drug addict he can deal with a second daughter.

I'd say so, my family and friends say so, so.. probably yeah! :3

If all goes well, he'll probably gain a daughter.

Why people choose to utterly nuke their relationships fully-knowing coming out will only cause harm blows my mind.

Because, sadly, if I wanna present femininely in public and get the HRT stuff, I need to go through him.

you just get off to the idea of being a woman you faggot. but you'll never be one. instead of lying, tell your father and all your family members that you get sexual arousal from imagining yourself as a woman.

Nobody is trans retard, trans is a label for when you try to swap to the other sex because you think it will make you happy. It won't, you really thing being an abomination pretending to be the other sex is anywhere close to just being the sex you are? It doesn't matter if a monkey tries to be MtH (monkey to human) it will still be a monkey in a wig

Coming out is stupid, especially if there's a good chance that the people you come out to are gonna treat you like shit for it. Just boymode until you can't anymore.
Also I would look into trying to leave bongland because that shithole is the worst country in the Western world for trannies (it's also just an authoritarian hellhole all around with rapidly declining demographic and economic prospects)

Prepare a discourse addressing his possible fears:
>I'm not going to change much, I've been like this for years and you liked me
>I'm not gonna do weird shit like the news tell you, I'm just a normal ass person, just trans
>I don't think being a man is shameful, and in fact I'm proud of you for being my father. This is who I am, and I plan to honor what you taught me, in my own way
Dunno. You know the guy better than I do. Practice the speech a little, or at least memorize the main points.
Don't ask him shit. You're informing him. Don't give him chances to negotiate or coerce you. It'll just give him false hopes.

However, it's probably more practical to try to save up for your pills and take them, and just let him deal with the appearance change. At some point you come out to him and he just says "yeah uh I kinda noticed the tits".
