I’m not trans but, I’ve got a lot of trans friends and coworkers. They’re just normal people. They don’t drink jet fuel for breakfast or anything. Sure they have a unique outlook and a particular set of struggles. Everyone had their own version of that though that’s unique to them and their life circumstances. Just treat them like people. It’s cool if you want to do sub-plots about what the particular challenges of living as a trans person are, but don’t make that their whole story. They still have to put on pants, eat tacos and do taxes like everyone else.
