Argentina always seems to have the best transgender commercial spots. First that they had that heart-warming bank ad about being nice to your trans neighbors, and now they have this trans equality campaign ad featuring the faces and stories of beautiful transmen and women. T-advocates may feel like the trans rights movement is 20 years behind the LGBT rights movement, but trans groups should follow this ad's lead—sharing your faces and stories on camera is an important step towards getting cisgender Americans to understand your plight.
