I'd give you a hug, Shiko!!
I'm not trying to make excuses for your G-ma, but offer an explanation: Oftentimes, older people are less accepting of sexual practises that aren't in their rectangle of 'normal' (read: anything that isn't heterosexual). A bit of an unfair generalisation, yes, but many older people are more close-minded.
Outside of that, I wouldn't pay what she's saying much attention. You know who you are and you have places to go and people to talk to where you're accepted.

I'm unsure as to what I really even am. I'm pretty sure I'm a bisexual coming to terms with her sexuality only recently. Since I know that I do feel attracted to some boys (the ones who aren't drooling idiots, that is), but then I have a crush on my girl friend.

It's okay, later you could find someone who returns your feelings.

*using thread to bitch/vent*
So the relationship with the transgendered boy I mentioned in previous posts didn't work out. Fair enough things happen. But she's going around telling people I'm gay? WTF?!
1. I'm bi, and not ready to "come out" and tell people etc. So stfu. Why does it matter what I am? 2. You are bi yourself and transgender and go to soooo many homophobic protests because of all the abuse you get. So YOU OF ALL PEOPLE, SHOULD KNOW USING "She's gay" as an "insult" is just plain idiotic. Which brings me to point 3. Why is "she/he/you're so gay" considered an insult? We don't compliment people by saying "you're so straight" URGH!!!!!!!

Confront her if she doesn't want to deal with you let her be but if something happens to her then tries to call back to you don't let her.

My mother is impossible.
She thinks I'm going to cheat on my girlfriend because I'm bi so I "must want a boyfriend with my girlfriend". NO that is not how bisexuality works. ._.
Also, crushing on straight people sucks. D:

Okay, I really feel like I should come out as trans to my parents. I'm definitely not expecting any sort of positive reaction, but the sooner I tell them the sooner they'll accept it (if they EVER accept it, that is). Plus maybe if I'm lucky they'll send me to a gender therapist or something. The earlier I can transition, the better.
But I have no idea how to tell them. How would I even start the conversation? It'd just be so fucking awkward. "HI MOM AND DAD, just wanna let you know that I, your precious only daughter, have always felt like a guy and would like to transition to male LOLOLOL." And I love my parents and have a pretty good relationship with them, so I'd hate to ruin that. Any advice?

^ Try and not beat around the bush when you tell them, think about what you are going to say.
@thread I'm scared if I go to highschool and people find out I'm bi I will get beat and outcasted. I don't want to confused with girls who kiss for fun or people coming up to me and asking if I wanna do them. I won't say it myself unless I make really good friends and tell them.

I'm worried about the same,since participating in National Coming Out Day is part of my agenda this year. Being at a school where nobody really gives a shit sucks (and by not giving a shit, I'm going with caring about the students)

Does your school have a GSA or an LGSA? Supportive groups like those can really make coming out easier, especially since you'll know you've got a bunch of supportive people behind you (as well as at least one teacher who could help you if you were bullied).

Do they have to tell your family?I'm not sure about your school, but at mine the GSA didn't require any permission slips or parent/guardian notification. Since it was held during lunch in a classroom, anyone could just walk in. No formal membership.

^Yikes, that sucks. But in my experience, GSA's don't require permission. Like Niccoletta said, the one I was in was just a lunchtime group in a classroom, and you could basically just show up whenever.
