As someone who works through it these days, it's not as difficult to work with as some would have you believe.
Think of it like learning someone's name, you may forget it, you use the wrong name accidentally and stumble over your words trying to get it right while you're still getting to know this person. Eventually, you develop a genuine connection to this human and care enough to get it right so you remember their name more readily.
It's amazing what a human is capable of when they want to express kindness to others.
