Yeah🥲 I’m gonna get deadnamed and misgendered all day by my family but at least my bf’s family is accepting. I’m trying so hard to see them tomorrow

If anyone needs a new family member that’s accepting, hi I’m your older sibling/cousin now. I love each of you so much and you’ll get through these tough holidays, just think about the yummy food(helps me) or if you’re able too, plan a Friendsgiving/picnic ☺️

Also th*nksgiving is a celebration of indigenous genocide so dont celebrate it if you can and work to return land to native people

My therapist told me I’m allowed to camp out in the bathroom if I don’t want to be around the people and I’m gonna extend that permission to y’all

we found out this year that my homophobic uncle who always causing the problems at thanksgiving was cheating on his wife with a dude. Can’t wait for thanksgiving this year

as someone struggling with these exact feelings rn, thank you for sharing <33

44

Honestly if i can get through dinner without anything terrible happening I’ll call it a success 😅

41

Best feeling is realizing you don’t have to go to those events!!!!!

Sometimes it’s so hard to feel comfortable around family when knowing they don’t know Im bisexual. I always have it in the back of my head that they wouldn’t like me. Which makes family events so hard. We can all make it through this thanksgiving if your feeling the same as me ❤️

Hi yall, if anyone needs to talk about stuff or wants a new sister or cousin Im here. My dms are always open if anyone needs to chat about anything ❤️

11

it’s not going to be too hard considering i’m not out as either bi or trans, but i’m still known as “the family liberal”. i’ve been meaning to come out for so long but i just can’t find the words or right moment. im always terrified of what their response is going to be, especially considering im already not a huge family favorite.

10

My family has always been nothing but accepting. If anyone needs a family who’ll love unconditionally and accept you, our doors and arms are always open. I came out when I was young and wish that my community could be given the same love and support that I was. Love you all and stay safe

As someone who also has to hide her identity to majority of her family, have a happy and SAFE thanksgiving! Like the original poster said, chosen family above blood family. Be safe everyone💕

It isn’t even thanksgiving yet and my family had already mention politics and religion, I always thought those were the two thing you never mention with family

8

oh god I thought this post was sent on my college yikyak and got worried about the haters 😭

8

I already came out to my family but not the grandparents 😂

def thankful and blessed to have a family that accepts me and my heart goes out to those that don’t. it’ll get better 🫶

I hate thanksgiving for this reason, but thank you so much <3

Thanksgiving is trash, but one day I’ll never see any of these people ever again 💅🏾 still getting the food tho

My girlfriend is meeting my religious extended family tomorrow! So nervous!!

Sending love to all of y’all, esp those with unaccepting families. Know we’re here for you and love you no matter who you are!

I am going to dinner with family who will deadname and mid gender me but what’s pulling me through is the fact I’m going to my sister and her partners place for dessert and drinks. There’s always a silver lining

Thank you🫶🫶🫶
