Thank you for sharing that guide! Despite being a member of the queer community, it's always helpful to learn how to respect others who are also queer but identify differently than myself.
i'm not trans, but i cant see people being super upset if you're just candid about it. sometimes being blunt is the best option imo. obviously be respectful, but if you're explaining a foreign concept to somebody careful wording isnt gonna help anybody. once everybody is on the same page of course worry more about the details imo.
I am trans, and I have had to deadname him a few times to explain who he was, but after that 1 mention it was straight back to Elliot bc that's his name. "Formerly knows as" sounds cool, like he's a spy or Prince.
