[quote=Anonymous]My lovely colleague is trans and uses nonbinary pronouns and TWICE (not in their presence thank goodness) I’ve referred to them as “she”. They’re on T and have a little beard, but otherwise present as pretty feminine. They joined the company already having transitioned so I don’t even have the excuse of having known them before the transition. Just built in perceptions and assumptions that are proving hard to shake. It’s weird though bc my kids have friends who’ve tried on various gender identities and I’ve been able to keep up with that… I can only imagine how difficult it is if you’ve known someone for years prior to transition. Any tips from someone who’s been successful? I so want to be respectful. I’m deep into middle age and have some new sympathy for old folks who struggle with this 😕[/quote]
