Probably been posted somewhere but makes me think of the Thai volleyball team that competed and won in the natonal championship. They still played in the male division as females though. They have a movie on the story as well.

Right now just anything really, as someone who has very little knowledge but try's to keep an open mind on issues I may not understand it's difficult to even know where to start.

Things like proper terminology would probably be a good start other then calling a transgender individual by the gender they associate with, I slip sometimes I won't lie about that but it's something I try to correct myself on when I do.

Problem is I spent most of my youth on a reservation so there is a lot to these issues that are honestly foreign to me,I'd like to try and change that.

A good place to start might be the transeducate subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/transeducate

It muight also be helpful to see how trangender people think and speak about themselves: https://www.reddit.com/r/asktransgender

There are subreddits for almost every niche of transgender related topics. You can find a nice list on this page: https://www.reddit.com/r/asktransgender/wiki/linked

As for accidentally using the wrong pronouns once in a while, it happens. Hell, even I slip up sometimes with friends of mine who are early in transition. I apologize sincerely and move on. Know that it will probably stick with them for a while though so it is best to try not to mess up.
