The heart of every AGE meeting is the open sharing circle, where attendees are invited to speak about whatever is most pressing in their gender journey that month. There is no pressure to share, and listening is equally valued. The group intentionally embraces people across the full spectrum of gender identity—cross-dressers, transsexuals, drag artists, androgynes, and those who reject labels altogether—as well as all sexual orientations, races, spiritualities, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Newcomers exploring their identity for the first time sit alongside those who have completed transition years ago, creating a rich environment of mentorship, empathy, and lived experience that no book or website can replicate.
