The International Foundation for Gender Education (IFGE), is seeking writers for our quarterly journal, Transgender Tapestry, published since 1978. Our publication is geared towards a diverse population exploring gender issues. Submissions may include Research, Feature Articles, Reviews, Personal Narrative, Fiction, and more. We are not an erotic publication. For more information email: editor@ifge.org

The software used to run the ifge.org website, PostNuke CMS, was updated over the last week. We regret that this caused the site to be intermittantly unavailable during the process. IFGE.ORG gets upwards of three million visits a year, and the large numbers of visitors has put a strain on the existing server. Additional upgrades are scheduled to deal with the load. We apologize for any inconvenience while we complete this process.
Thank You,
The IFGE Web Development Team
