Cinema-Femina is a do-it-yourself meetup group that encourages it's members to scout out and see films made by and about women. It's all about watching movies, making friends, having lively discussions and, perhaps most importantly, it's about supporting the filmmakers themselves. Female filmmakers NEED US! They need us to buy tickets the FIRST WEEK their films hit the theaters. Those numbers will determine whether that filmmaker will ever get a distribution deal again. Sucks, huh? But here's th …

I started this group because I love fishing and it's overlooked as a fun social event. It has a bad reputation, women think it has to be yucky, lol, which isn't true. The purpose of the group is social, we would actually meet often to eat, drink, and plan fishing trips. We could go fishing as often as there is interest but I wouldn't think more than 3-4 times from April to October. DON'T fret ladies about baiting the hook or touching the fish, lol, as there are party boats and private charters …

I started this group for my dedication in helping women with this terrible chronic disease. My journey started over 10 years ago, as I was diagnosed with Uterine Fibroids. I could not believe after seeing 21 doctors that not one doctor had a clue as to how to treat my fibroids without killing my reproductive system. This delay in treatment and being misinformed was leading me to become sicker and sicker as the years went by.... By the time of my surgery, I was almost at deaths door from years of …

I'm a fun, free-spirited 32 year-old woman and am starting a group for women in the Central NJ area with the hope of making some real …
