Personally, I wouldn’t want to receive a meme that assumes some level of familiarity with me from a co-worker if we never had that relationship before.
Why should your choice of operating system have anything to do with any other aspect of your identity?
I think it's identifying the person as trans that's the issue. That's my biggest hesitation; I almost guarantee she would appreciate the meme. But if I were to actually transition (egg_irl) I don't think I would want people who I wasn't very familiar with identifying me as trans even if it was obvious. I just wanted to hear some people's thoughts here
