Pronouns are important to those with a transgender identity. For some, association with the gender attached to their birth name and identity causes stress and anxiety. Others are just ready to leave that part of their life behind. Be respectful of pronoun usage. If you do not know what pronoun someone prefers, it is okay to ask politely. If you accidentally use the wrong pronoun, apologize and make an effort to use the correct one in the future.
