I need help coming out

So I want to come out to my dad because I want a place to be openly gay at home i guess so the place to do that would be my dad's apartment (my parents are divorced and my mom is homophobic) but I need to find a way to make sure he isn't homophobic and come out without him hating me. And I need some help on what to say and do it over text or in person??? I don't know.
