Hi handsome/snazzy looking person, I'm so sorry...! My blahaj (aka trans shark from Ikea) say hi and give you virtual cuddles. *🫂 Virtual 🫂* my parents are supportive but I understand. So do you think you will be safe if you come out? Even if you will be, do you think they will treat you differently? I'll keep responding :) hang in there

Omg a big shonk or small shonk :DDD anyway well if you think it might not be safe (u sound kinddaaa unsure about whether it's safe or not) so maybe don't come out. Try to get to college soon ig, if you need to come out do, if you think you can hold off any longer don't come out. As for the transition wear your hair up, use a hat (hats are masc, especially beanies) and the good thing is it's usual for girls to wear "boy" clothes. So a neutral t shirt and shorts would look good. You can do this~

Ohhh I see so no college soon? D: that's sad. Hopefully you can socially transition if only in the slightest but tell your big shonk they are lovely and you are too!

As for being ace, you may not have to tell her, she might not care if you are not interested in *that*? For your gender, if you are AMAB, you could go with he/him?? I don't really know, sorry.

Oh I meant that (if it's OK with you, I get that it often isn't) It might be OK for your family to use the pronoun he for you. Personally, go by [name]/they, and I would hate to only have one of those used, so I understand what you mean. I'm sorry, I wish I could help you more.

Oh sorry I meant that you may be able to go with he, but it wouldn't be great. Good luck!!!
