</h3>
                    <h4>January 9, 2008 </h4>
                    <p> What does 'class' or 'community' 
                      mean? How does the newbie Midwesterner serving burgers at 
                      a Castro street diner relate to the landlord and shop owner 
                      'Gay Community' spokesmen? How do the schisms 
                      between different classes of women, whether lesbian or bi 
                      or undefined, show up in daily life and local politics (or 
                      not)? How does fear of gender bending impact trans and intersexed 
                      people when it comes to paying the rent? Meliza Baņales, 
                      Solidad de Costa, Keith Hennessy, and Michelle Tea.</p>
