We plan to have regular social gatherings, so you can make friends, enjoy uninhibited feminist conversation, and most importantly casually discover issues you share as women in NYC and the ways that we might solve them. We hope these purely social gatherings will foster camaraderie, wild brainstorming, and inspire subsequent events and actions. NOW has always been a grassroots organization that relies heavily on its almost completely autonomous local offices. Those offices, like NOW-NYC, are off …

Returning from Center for Inquiry's Women in Secularism conference, we perceived a need for a local group supporting women in the secular and humanist community of NYC. Safe spaces coupled with open house discussions are invaluable to a comfortable and inclusive environment. Our group will meet to discuss women's issues and the role of women in the secular and humanist community, as well as host social activities that encourage a supportive and vibrant community. We will also find ways to suppo …

The group name is inspired by the New York Times Bestseller of the same title, written by the hilarious Caitlin Moran, which argues that feminism still has a place in this world, and that we should embrace it! Let's get together informally and redefine what it means to be a modern feminist woman. No background in feminism required; just an interest in meeting and learning from each other while having a good time.

The purpose of this group is to unite those who are keen on gender inequality and feel a need to discuss and change it.It's a place to acknowledge and explore what it means to be a feminist over dinner, coffee, and whatever else tickles out feminist fancies :)

This group lists the community activities at Freedom Hall of two separate socialist feminist organizations: Radical Women and the Freedom Socialist Party. Everyone welcome!

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 …

A trailblazing socialist feminist organization, Radical Women is the revolutionary wing of the women's movement and a strong feminist voice within the Left. Immersed in the daily fight against racism, sexism, homophobia, and labor exploitation, Radical Women believes in multi-issue organizing around the needs of the most oppressed. We view women's leadership as decisive to social change and train women to take their place in the forefront of the struggle. Radical Women is an autonomous, all-wome …

God is a Brown Girl Too® is a company that provides women of color with a nonjudgmental space to reflect on the Spirit within, a space in which there is no separation between the human spirit and God as the energy expressing all that we are: creation constantly and continuously creating itself. We are all made in the image and likeness of God. Although the community is targeted towards the needs of women of color, anyone can join who shares the vision of the group.

Welcome to this space of power and sensuality! This meet-up is dedicated to all of us who are interested in reconnecting to our sacred feminine essence, which is our greatest source of power, confidence, love and grace as women. Together we will nurture, embrace and grow our feminine power, Shakti, and discover our own unique inner goddesses and warriors! For centuries women’s sacred feminine energy and sensuality has been repressed. At the larger social level we can see how this results in our …

I decided to start the group because I cannot find a book club that assigns books that are more to my liking. So I am hoping to find other girls who will enjoy the type of books I love to read. I read both fiction and non fiction, but my main interest is stories that touch upon specific things: feminism, sexuality, mental health, etc. So join my group if you are looking to stay local in Brooklyn, like to drink and like to read.

Somewhere between the bland politeness we reserve for extended relatives and the vitriolic disdain we show our arch enemies, our society houses a more wholesome middle ground... This is where individuals can disagree considerably but respectfully, and where listening to opposing opinions brings understanding and empathy rather than contempt and distance. I'd like for the majority of this meetup to be one-on-one (or small group) semi-structured discussions, where attendants identify areas of sign …

Our members are building progressive movements for social change while establishing an openly socialist presence in American communities and politics. Join us today!

Coalition of progressive younger women working to provide a stronger voice in the policymaking process for younger women, increase the impact of younger women activists through a common agenda, and define the next generation of the women's movement.

A group for Pagans, polytheists, occultists, and others, of many different paths and all genders, who revere Lilith as a Goddess. For most of the past few thousand years, Lilith was regarded as a demoness and nothing more. In the 20th century, She was reclaimed by some Pagans and feminists as a more positive figure, representing female independence, sexuality, and vehement opposition to tyranny. Some other modern occultists revere Her simply as a chthonic figure, rather than as a revolutionary. …

Comics for Bitches is an inclusive environment for women, queers, and feminists to gather and discuss comics and graphic novels in an open non-judgemental environment. We began as a group when we discovered we all loved the medium of comics but mostly read them on our own. We hope to foster a community of graphic novel reading that inspires us as creatives, readers, hobbyists, illustrators and writers. CFB is meant for women of all gender expressions and types. We are focused on creating an envi …

The aim of this Meetup is to provide a forum where men and women can share and learn the views of others on the many ways in which gender roles have an impact on our lives. The goals of Feminists and Masculists ring hollow if by definition, they marginalize the concerns of the other gender. Despite all the changes to societal expectations for each gender in the past century, certain traditional patterns remain. Some of these traditions amplify innate differences, while others arguably represent …
