October screwup

screwup: BDSM for trannies, genderqueers and their friends, presents...

"Not trans enough" - dealing with the leather community

Friday, October 8, 2004 from 7:30 to 9:30 PM
Eros, 2051 Market Street, San Francisco

Have you ever been turned away from an event that was billed as open to all trans* people? Are you afraid to go to events that cater primarily to biological dykes or fags for fear of rejection or discrimination? What do we as trans people? Run away? Educate? Apologize for being there?

This will be an open discussion about the reality of being trans in the leather community. Everyone is welcome to attend, trans or not. The focus will be on how to constructively respond as individuals, as trans people, as allies and as a community.

(*) trans:
in this context, anyone who self-identifies as transexual, transgender, genderqueer, crossdresser, outside of the gender binary, or on one or more points of the gender spectrum, etc...

screwup supports the right of individuals to self-identify instead of having labels forced upon them!
   
screwup is for trannies, queers, and our friends. This event is open to all genders and will be held in the meeting space at Eros. Folks sometimes go out for coffee or food afterwards, so come prepared...

$2-5 donation (optional!) will be accepted for a charity to be determined that evening.

Spread the word by downloading, printing, and distributing flyers.

Please contact screwup@screwup.info if you'd like us to arrange for an ASL interpreter, to get involved, make suggestions or with any other requests.
