It sucks that your parents reacted the way they did and compared it to the trans parade.

I made another comment on my thoughts on that in particular: Religious Parents But I am making this comment to impart some advice, and apologies if I come across as a kibbitzer.

If you feel unsafe or that your parents will toss you out of the house if they think you're "engaging in bullshit", I recommend to find someone you can trust to talk to(ex. Relatives, friends, etc) and make plans to live over there to be safe.

Otherwise, lay low and don't bring up that topic again and lie if you have to about your sexuality...

I only say this speaking from experience that when my parents suspected that I "look gay" they threaten to lock kick me out of house and give me a beating. I'm also a closeted non-religious person. If I would've admitted to them I was not Catholic, I would've received that same treatment.

Please take care of yourself and reach out to your support.

I agree with this 100% I've never come out to my parents about being bisexual or about being ex-muslim. Your safety and wellbeing is the top priority. You don't owe the truth to people who will use it against you to punish you.
