Respect is also about using language that is inclusive and affirming. This includes using the individual's preferred name and pronouns, as well as avoiding language that is derogatory or stigmatizing.

In recent years, there has been a growing conversation about the importance of representation and respect for individuals who identify as transgender or non-binary. One aspect of this conversation is the sharing of stories and images that showcase the lives and experiences of trans individuals.
