Your parents sound, to an extent, like they are being ordinary overbearing parents trying to direct how you live your life. There's not much you can do to avoid that, gay or straight. Your mother's denial is unfortunate, but I'm guessing she's probably still trying to come to terms with it. Think on the bright side, I think it's better that they try to be interested in your life in the wrong way rather than them turning you out. They act that way because they care, but they don't know how to deal with you being gay, which is probably not what they have been imagining in the future they planned out from the moment you were born.
