Oooookay just got a crap ton of incriminating evidence-- · 11:48pm Nov 3rd, 2021
My sister told me my parents are plotting subtle ways to make me "change my mind" about being trans by buying me a bunch of girly stuff and I quote, "Force [me] to wear it to school". And they're gonna make me wear pads for a whole week to try and break me
It's so fucking obvious they're trying to fix me and I don't give a fuck about them anymore, if they're gonna do this kinda shit, I might as well just leave, y'know???
Where will you go?

No clue
Well, the way I see it, they're accidentally accommodating you. You get to wear girly stuff to show your gender, and by the time they realize they've accidentally encouraged you they'll be too far in to pull out.

Well yeah, but I should be allowed to do those things on my own time. I'm basically saying fuck them and going on and ignoring them

I see. Well, you could always pretend you've gone blind or deaf. Then they'll have to- oh wait, no, that would be even more of an excuse for them to violate your privacy. Erm, yeah, running away seems fine. How much money can you scrape together for this operation?

I got nothing, I'm broke with no job or anything of the sort, and my parents wouldn't let me borrow any money whatsoever.

Oh dear. Well, I hear Princess Zephyrina is hiring stand-ins for herself for when she wants to hide away for a while.
(Get it? Because, your pfp?)

I'd hooves down take that job in a heartbeat
Do you have any community resource centers near your location? If you are able to get access to an LGBT resource center, you might be able to find some help here.
A more practical option might be to run away to a friend's house. An old roommate of mine is a lesbian, but her girlfriend's family were Bible-belt conservative types, even ended up forcing their daughter to go back into the closet and admit she was "just confused." But my roommate was openly lesbian to her family, so having her girlfriend over at her house was a way to provide a short reprieve from the family pressure.
If you have close friends who will back you up at this time, I'd say to lean on them for support. Sorry I can't offer more advice, I'm as straight and cis as I can be, and my gay and trans peers have had pretty accepting families (in varying degrees) so they've never faced this kind of problem. That I know of.
Edit: Not much, but if it's any consolation, take these two pictures using LGBT flags as colour schemes as a symbol of my support. I'm not that good of an artist, so I'm just going to make it clear that Ocellus' hair/skin/shirt is the colour palette for the trans flag, even though her clothes are representing the non-binary colour palette.

Girl clothes are actually quite comfortable, would recommend. I wore a dress last week, and despite it being really small around the arms because I’d gotten it from my sibling, it was incredibly comfortable.
Even got some complements, though I feel like my big-city high school is a bit more accepting than the Mormon community you seem to be a part of.
Though, pads are a bit crazy, not to mention completely useless, considering that’s a biological thing.
If you do somehow manage to get away, I have no idea where you’d go, but I hope you can find it.

I'd take any job that requires moving to Equestria permanently tbh, it's the best fictional world ever created.
Real talk, just tell your principal that your parents are trying to force you to do that, and they'll probably put a stop to it. Schools are against anything "disruptive", and most schools with strict dress codes will just straight up ban it.
Also probably time to start reading up on your local laws and find out what your parents can and can't legally force you to do.
