Really 99% of what you need to know is to refer to people the way they tell you they prefer to be addressed, the same way you'd try to remember whether to use Mr or Ms, or try to remember their name.

If unsure, ask, if you get it wrong, apologize and move on, just as you would with a name or title. Showing that you are trying gets you far. It's nothing more than being willing to treat people with respect.

Ok thank you. Sorry I'm not from the west so we don't really have such concepts here and it's very confusing. I posted some follow up questions but deleted it because I think they were too personal. But I will try to read more about this as it's quite interesting conversation.

Sorry, some people don't have enough time in the day to ask everyone they ever speak to. You can speak to people with respect that doesn't involve all this

I didn't say anything about asking other than if in doubt. If you consider even that to be a burden, that is on you.
