Trans conferences: where are the men?

Trans guys and trans conferences are not mutually exclusive--but sometimes it seems that way.

I wrote earlier this week about the First Event conference. I had a really great time, and I think conferences can be an incredible way to get back to our "trans roots," if you will, and to connect with people who have shared similar experiences. The TransMasculine Track at First Event, organized by Anderson Clark, brought in approximately 50 trans men, which is impressive for a new program--especially a program aimed at the guys.
