The Pocket Trans Language Guide is your stylistic reference for talking or writing about transness and trans people. In it, you'll find:
 
The uses cases for "trans" and "transgender" as well as a few lesser-used terms,
How to discuss gender in general,
Ways of linguistically respecting those who have social transitioned or are in the midst of doing so,
More advanced directions on the usage of gender pronouns,
A few tactics for gender-neutral language,
A discussion on the less-than-ideal use of the letter "X" in existing words, and
How to use medical terms!
 
This is a great zine for anyone who knows trans people exist and wants to respect them, but just needs some help with verbiage.
