more details » Manning Up: Transsexual Men on Finding Brotherhood, Family & Themselves Launch Party at LGBT Center We will be having a Manning Up Launch Party on Tuesday, June 17, 2014 from 7:00-9:00pm PDT in San Francisco, CA at the San Francisco LGBT Community Center. Manning Up: Transsexual Men on Finding Brotherhood, Family & Themselves is a groundbreaking collection of 27 personal narratives by a diverse group of North American transsexual men who span class, ethnicity, ability, and age locations. Award-winning writers and new voices come together to tell their stories of doubt and discovery, invisibility and belonging, isolation and paying wisdom forward. Manning Up offers readers a fuller image of transition’s place within men’s larger life pictures, ultimately challenging academic, medial, and bureaucratic narratives of transsexual people and expanding on cultural understandings of masculinity.
