I wanna come out to my dad so fucking bad but I have absolutely no idea how he would react, mainly because he’s insanely old, but he’s a Trump hating republican (admitted to me he’s almost to the point of not being republican anymore), but he hates (1/2)

He hates “hippies” or anything he deems “hippyish” which is most stuff nowadays

That’s tough. How much of your safety relies on you being in the closet? (Financial, mental, physical, housing, etc)

He pays for my college tuition, car, phone, pretty much everything except food. I live full time with my mother who I already came out too but she doesn’t support, so housing isn’t an issue. He’s the one who I mainly hang out with so mentally it’d be a pretty big blow if he reacts badly. He’s old enough that I’d probably be fine letting him live his life oblivious
