Were you born female but…
- you sometimes feel more like a guy?
- strangers often call you “sir” or “young man”?
- women “freak out” when you go into public restrooms?
Do you have questions about your sex or gender?
Come and hang out with people like you!
Indy Boyz is a peer-led social/support group for female-to-male transgendered people (FTMs) in Indianapolis and surrounding areas. We have been meeting regularly since 1998. We began as small groups of two or three friends each, who came together looking for support from others like ourselves. Typical attendance at a meeting ranges from 15 to 25 people with equal representation of FTMs and SOFFAs. See our Calendar for info on our Next Meeting!
Our goal is to serve the FTM+/SOFFA community of central Indiana; however, we welcome and have regular attendees from other regions of the state as well as from other states! We also have a very active and supportive Email List.
We provide support to our members and our community through open monthly meetings, information booths at pride festivals, resource sharing, and general mentorship.
