There is still much work to be done in how as a wider community we educate ourselves about and respect transgender and gender non-confirming people. Transgender Awareness Week is a great place to start, but whilst it is okay to be curious and ask (respectful) questions we should not expect members of the trans community to do the work for us. The very least we can do is avoid assumptions about someone's gender identity and respect their pronouns and how they wish to be addressed. Please don't make out that this is the hard work - it's the least that we can do as the wider community.
