Parents support being more feminine but not a transition. Advice?

Will try to keep this short. Basically I am trans amab, and I’ve already come out to my friends and parents, who are supportive of me and want me to be happy. However, I recently told my parents I wanted to start hrt. They were very much against this, saying it would ruin my life and be something I regret in 10 years (I’m 20 btw). They also pointed out how I was always very masculine as a child and never showed any signs of this, because every trans person is “like that since they were little” and I wasn’t. It wasn’t until about 16ish I started light questioning my gender and now I believe I would be happier as a woman on hrt. I don’t really have dysphoria, but pretty big gender euphoria for the other side. And yeah I’ve always acted like a man but inside I feel feminine and would like to publicly present as that, but I don’t know if that’s an okay reason to start hrt? The main problem is if I would start hrt, I would cause a huge commotion in my house and would probably have to move out, which is hard because I don’t have money or a job right now due to mental crisis stuff that made me drop out of college and then the job I worked at layed off everyone. Does anyone have a similar situation or any advice for me? Ty!
