Trust.

It's been just shy of 16 months since I last tackled this concept in depth here at Bilerico, when a comment of mine was turned into an experimental posting.

It was 14 months after what is likely the single greatest error ever made by a major LGBT organization, and the Trans community was still very much on edge, still very much feeling the sting of it. And in that comment, I talked about some stuff related to trans people in the LGBT movement in a manner that I've not spoken of lately.

I'm feeling fairly reflective of late, so I figured I'd take a look back and see what all has changed in those 16 months.
