Laverne Cox shares her thoughts about Caitlyn Jenner

Not necessarily. You’re talking about two of the biggest names in this human rights issue. The average Jo isn’t always going to be so insightful.

For a number of years I was involved in a field that brought me into regular contact with a group of transwomen at various stages of the process and I can tell you that all except for one of those people (out of dozens) continued to treat other women as if they were still men: interrupting us when we spoke, assuming that what they thought was more important to be heard, not liking our ideas until one of them mentioned the exact same idea later, etc. There’s a Bell curve of social awareness when it comes to this issue, just like any other.
