That's how it came across to me. Like this documentary is for educating people but that doesn't mean when you see Laverne Cox in person you can just run up on her and ask her about her gender reassignment surgery. Or even if she's a guest on your show she might feel offended by you asking.

At least that's how I took it.
I agree completely and think this is it.
