I see where you are coming from and I can understand the frustration. Theres a few things I would like to talk about here.
First, dont always do thinks because others are doing it. You said that all 15 year olds are dating, and if you say that to you parents, then they will reply, Oh so if all 15 year olds jump of a bridge will you jump too? So saying something like that shows you are not mature.
Second, She sounds like a great girl, and thats the side you need to show your parents. 1 month, isnt that long and you need to remember that. I would SLOWLY try to get your parents use to her and show them that you respect her, and that you respect yourself and your parents by not doing something stupid. You have alot to prove with your parents, dont mess it up.
Third, I would try to get involved with your girlfriends parents as well. Meet them, and show them how RESPECTFUL you are. Getting to know her parents might make you a better talker to your own parents.
Lastly - Take everything slowly. EVERYTHING. The relationship, the trust building for your parents, and anything else. If you move to quick I will tell you right now you will have some problems.
