We can share our stories, give and receive advice, and discuss happiness related literature/films/spirituality, etc. The format will be a collective effort, but it the aim is to have meaningful conve …

This group is for women and men who are interested in feminist issues. We will have meetings on various topics including: women's empowerment, equal rights, portrayal of women in the media, relationships, activism, medical/reproductive laws etc. Some of our meetings will be informal social gatherings, discussion groups, guest speakers and panel forums. We will also include some activism in the form of social posting and activist blogging.

The purpose of these meetups is to gather together a community of women who have an interest in performing rituals, creating altars, sharing food and experiencing at times guided meditation and drumming, all in the context of gathering together to discuss and explore topics of specific interest to women. The connection women have with the moon is ancient, primal and lives in their bodies. I have created this group as a way to gather together women who are passionate, fierce, courageous and who w …

On a practical level, this Portland social group is for lesbian/queer and queer-friendly women who have vitality and a strong sense of self. I say "practical" because I realize that most people use meetup casually, to meet others and find things to do from time to time. But ideally, I'd like to manifest a village of warriors. To me, a true warrior of modern times is a strong woman who has a healthy relationship with power. She speaks her truth, walks her own path, lives by principle instead of c …
