Co-sponsored by Fluidity, the Love Your Body committee, Four Front and the Chancellor's Diversity Initiative, writer and theater artist S. Bear Bergman sought to break down transgender stereotypes Thursday at the MU Student Center.

Bergman, the creator and performer of three award-winning solo performances, said ze believes the focus of transgender experiences has been mainly negative, filled with sad stories and depressing journeys. Ze is the gender-neutral pronoun.
