Ii get confused listening to podcast a story of a trans person. It can get really confusing between pretransition and post or when talking about stuff. Authors handle it differently still be like

“Then they taunted with him with ‘ugly mike!’ But Rebecca knew she would prove them wrong the following year”

Luckily every trans person I’ve met in real life is happy if you just put in the effort to try. I’ve never been yelled at for a mistake just kindly corrected and I apologize. Very civil.

I feel like we need a different pronoun, “they” makes a story confusing very quickly.
