You are not stupid even if you feel that way right now. I am so, so sorry your parents reacted so poorly, and I am super proud of you for knowing who you are and for trying to come out, even if your parents reacted poorly.

Homophobia is not your fault. And the existence of the homophobic transgender ideology, is also not your fault. This all sounds super stressful, especially when you're 17 and don't have a ton of autonomy-- do you have any close friends or anyone supportive who would be safe to talk to and vent about this topic?
