It's best to avoid making assumptions about a person's gender identity, and to use they/she pronouns when referring to them. Furthermore, avoid asking unnecessary questions or making inappropriate comments about their gender expression or identity.

When talking about a person's gender identity, try to be respectful and avoid phrases that could be seen as offensive. Avoid referring to a person’s physical attributes, for example “she looks like a man”, or make assumptions about someone’s sexuality or gender based on their appearance. It is important not to question an individual’s identity or use offensive language related to their gender identification.
