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?

Listen to it and if you can, don't let it control your behavior. Think. Decide. Act. Bravery is doing something even tho you are scared or anxious. You can do it!
