How to not "walk on eggshells"? (lemmy.eco.br)

Some time ago, I was seeing a post online about "walking on eggshells" and how people were annoyed at this, and it made me think a little. I always try my best to be a respectful and decent person, but when the matter is trans people I do get a bit nervous (I'm an introvert, by the way. I'm already a bit nervous by default). How can I be sure that I'm not offending someone while also not looking so worried about it?

Just dont be an a jerk and listen to others, most people will be respectful when you make a mistake if you're clearly not doing it on purpose
