Trans 101. Allyship: first steps. Allyship to trans people involves a number of different actions: some are necessary and relatively easy, while some require more commitment and activism.

Allyship: first steps

I will make several lists in order of priority. Some of these are behaviors that you must engage in to treat trans people respectfully; some are goals to aspire to, but they may take a while and require some more courage! Call people by their preferred name, pronouns, and label. Always. Even if you're angry with them, even if they're total jerks, even if they're using gender-neutral pronouns that "sound weird" or "are hard to remember. "
