About S.T.A.G

Some
Transgenders
Are
Guys

Everyone deserves to have a place and a group where they feel safe. It is our intention to provide such a place and group for trans masculine individuals.

How do I get in touch with S.T.A.G. members?

The best way to get connected with members is to join the yahoo group Houston_STAG. As of January 2012, it is a very active listserv. You can join easily by typing your email addressing into the "subscribe to STAG Houston" box on the left of your screen.

What is S.T.A.G.?

S.T.A.G. stands for "Some Transgenders Are Guys" and was created in October 2000. It is the only support group in Houston, Texas created specifically for female-to-male trans people and those who love them. The members of S.T.A.G. are a diverse group in age, sexual orientation, race/ethnicity, spiritual/religious ideas, and all ways people can be diverse. Anyone who is an trans masculine or loves a trans masculine person is welcome. No one who is trans will be turned away. If anyone contacts S.T.A.G. who might fit into another group better, S.T.A.G. will assist in finding the right group.

Purpose
To provide resources, fellowship, and support to Transmasculine-identified persons on the FTM (Female-to-Male) Spectrum, including persons who are questioning, gender nonconformists, drag kings, crossdressers, intersexed persons, transsexual males, trans-identified butches, significant others, friends, families, and allies in Houston and the surrounding areas in a safe and supportive environment. As of January 2012, STAG meets every 2nd Tuesday from 7-9pm and 4th Saturday from 5-7pm at 604 Pacific.

After the meetings, we sometimes like to go out to grab dinner and hang out. You are welcome to bring your friends or significant other(s) to the meetings unless the meeting is a GUYS only meeting. That will be announced on the Yahoo Group Houston_STAG and posted on the homepage.
