I haven't told my parents that I am trans, because I think they won't take it well since my dad calls homosexual people "->-bleeped-<-s and gays". After I do, I will start HRT though. What age do I have to be and what are the requirements?

Normally at 16 with parents permission and a letter from a therapist stating that it is appropriate.
