I do my best to bring these things up with people in my life, including yourself. So far the only concept you had a hard time with was the term cis and the discussion was really more you just trying to understand than you trying to challenge it.

So in that way I feel you've earned my trust by, even when there may be an issue, approaching it lightly and carefully instead of assuming you're in the clear. It's a big reason why I opened up to you so quickly. Creating a bond that fast is atypical for me.
