i think both these replies are correct. as we see beyond the boundaries of our own cultural determination, whether gender, food, dance be the aspects in question, and as we age accumulating more events to integrate and synthesize, more points of view to consider and possibly emulate, then we expand to our potential, dipping and pollinating from the one planet's human cultural diversity.

so yes in terms of transcending limitations, no as regards transcending as abandoning in any way. it's inclusive...

by abandoning i means smoothing over the differences, i think transcendence is the celebration of the combination of the polarities, it is its child, its celebration.
