So I’m a closeted trans girl and I’m 19F. I used to live in a pretty strict and traditional South Asian household. I have a South Asian mum and a European dad. Both of them are pretty traditional though. If I came out as trans they would lose their minds cos they have some pretty bad stereotypes about the LGBT community in general.
A year ago when I went to my first year of college I completely changed. I started buying tights, skirts and all kinds of femme clothing. You can’t bottle the excitement of finally being able to dress the way you’ve always wanted to. I’ve also talked to my local pharmacist about doing hrt and I’m currently in hrt atm. My parents haven’t noticed yet since I’ve been on for 3 months only.
The reason I’m posting on this subreddit though is because I kind of feel guilty for using my parents money to buy all of this stuff being their back. I’m going to have to tell them eventually after the hrt fully kicks in. I just don’t know how to. The thing is despite being traditional with their social opinions they are still good people who raised me fairly well and I don’t want them to hate me for what I’ve done.
