Help, I feel like I'm not allowed to be productive.

Do you think maybe she's nervous this is redpill influence? Going off the sub you posted in.

Probably best to make a point of showing her how you don't believe redpill woman views etc

This isn't really the right place to post this. You're framing it as masculinity. Don't do that. You're trying to be financially responsible and productive. Don't get advice from red pill, but also don't get advice from here because you don't need "anti-red pill" advice, you need normal advice.

If you’re 15, why are you expecting your mum to chauffeur you to the gym? At that age, I had been taking public transit or cycling everywhere for several years already. Maybe she was legitimately tired and didn’t feel like driving you?

If you live 22k from the nearest gym. No offense but why not get more into body weight training? Like seriously, I promise you that at your age you don't need the gym to get a good physique. Shit, no one ever needs the gym or to lift weights to get a good physique. You only need weights if you are going to be a weightlifter (olympic or power) a body builder, a crossfitter or a strong man. If you are not competing in those specific sports then you do not need to touch a weight for the purposes of gaining strength, fitness, and muscle.

Can I ask how was your mum's relationship with your dad?

It sounds like she has some personal stuff going on but I appreciate that it's hard on you when you don't know what it is.

If you feel able idea suggest talking to her. Opening with something like mum Ive noticed you don't seem comfortable when I do these things. Try to stay calm and understand her point of view, e.g. if she's too tired or if she's worried you're too young. Be gentle in expressing why you want to do this e.g. be fit or be prepared for the future. Tell her what she means to you, she might be scared she's losing you.

Have you actually told your mom what you feel? Like telling her you’d like to help out in the house or just telling her you want to share stuff with her?

Also, don’t tie your self-worth to being productive. Nothing wrong with having a stock portfolio at 15 but don’t forget to be a teenager as well.

Why do you think your stock portfolio going up in value is "being a productive man"? Where'd you get that idea?

It's ok and normal for you two to have different interests. Bert and Ernie still manage to be friends, you know?

I’ve learned that people who don’t understand stocks don’t like hearing about your stock ideas or successes.
