My post last Sunday about rules for answering GLBTQ questions generated a heated back and forth over what trans people prefer to be called (among other trans issues). The exchange just confirmed for me that when I'm asked questions about trans people that I should stick only to the most basic answers and then refer the questioner on to other resources and/or people who know better. When I answer questions about homosexuality I rely heavily on my own experience and personal stories. When it comes to questions about trans people, I can't speak from personal experience.
