Bil went out on a limb a few months ago and admitted that he doesn't know enough about transgender people. It started several great discussions, and not just about trans people, but also about the privilege involved in asking a minority to explain itself and about how we define ourselves as a community.

Well, it wouldn't make sense to stop there. While mainstream representations of queerness tend to revolve around gay men, there's no reason to assume that everyone who identifies as L, G, B, T, or Q knows everything they want to know about gay men.
