What kind of group is Neutral Corner?
Neutral Corner is first and foremost a transgender service and education organization. We assist transgendered individuals and the larger transgender community through meetings, events, social service projects, and charitable contributions. We educate the general public about trans-issues, and seek to promote greater acceptance and respect for transwomen and transmen. We also provide a supportive space for individuals and groups to meet and discuss relevant gender issues.
Who usually attends Neutral Corner meetings?
Our members have included crossdressers, transsexuals, married couples, parents of transgendered children, those who are gender questioning, and community allies. Some of our members are open with their families, at their jobs, and in the general community. But others are still deeply closeted and need to be discrete. We are here to help everyone, according to their needs and parameters.
What do people normally wear to the meetings?
We meet at a mainstream restaurant in the San Diego. Dress is casual and appropriate for any woman in the Southern California area, but not provocative or sloppy. We discourage presentation going against decorum and good taste. Examples of this include fetish wear, garments that barely conceal or even reveal the breast or genital areas, and male-to-female “shock drag” such as visible stubble/ beard with female accoutrements.
Do I need to attend my first meeting in drag?
If you do not feel comfortable coming to a meeting in your preferred gender identity, don't worry. When and how you dress is up to you.
Can I bring my spouse, partner, family member, or friend to a meeting?
Absolutely!
I’m transsexual (or looking to transition). Can you give me medical or legal information ?
We respect every individuals right to follow their gender path as they feel is best for them. However, we believe that only medical, psychological, and legal professionals are equipped to provide this kind of information. We are happy to direct you to the appropriate providers on request.
