WHAT IS TRANSCENDING BOUNDARIES?

Transcending Boundaries Conference is for bisexual/pansexual, trans/genderqueer, and intersex people and our allies. TBC is for and about those who do not fit into the simple categories of gay/straight, male/female, and we couldn’t be more excited! We are pleased to announce that this year’s conference will be held in conjunction with the PFLAG Northeast Regional Conference for family, friends, and allies from across the region. We’ll take over DCU Center to foster community, educate ourselves, and overcome societal sex, gender, and sexuality boundaries!

Pete Chevany and Ron Suresha will be presenting on their new anthology, BI MEN, and plenty of bear-identified guys will be at the conference. Come Saturday or Sunday and say hi and visit them at their book booth in the vendor / sponsor area! They’ll have copies of their bi books, and Ron’s bear books, too!
