i know this sounds incredibly obvious but. people really like it when you respect their genders???? like yeah cis people gender affirming care BUT in my experience your average trans genderqueer person is going to have a nuance to their gender that rarely gets seen or respected, a label that seems contradictory, a xenogender like "cat" or "doll", a neopronoun, so on. and if you pay attention to and respect these and mention them people notice and they appreciate it. the queer community is full of people who are so rarely seen the way they want to be seen, and if you take just a little effort you can perform acts of incredible love and kindness.
just at 200 notes i have discovered that everyone needs to respect it/its pronouns or i will break your shins
