I want to meet other GC women in person

I've joined LWS
I've joined the WRN
I'm active in GC FB groups

But I've never been to any meet ups - possibly because I'm not in a city and the small towns near me don't seem to have any GC activity that I know of.

I'm not an activist but I would just like to hang out with other sex realists. How does one do this?!!

Do any of you meet people in real life?

Are there any of these networks in the very NW of England? I'm not googling the right thing, maybe.

If you’ve joined your nearest WRN, post on the WhatsApp chat & see if there’s anyone fairly near you who might like to meet up? That’s likely to be more flexible than trying to arrange a big meet up that suits everyone.

Or just watch out. I noticed a woman in an interesting T-shirt at my local gym, asked a couple of cautious questions, we exchanged numbers & now meet sometimes for coffee.

I'm East Anglia if that helps anyone!

So am I!

I used to live in a city where there was a very good meet up group but I haven't found one where I live now (East Suffolk).

I did meet another GC person at work because she had a Suffragette badge on her bag. I asked her outright. It was such a a relief to know that I wasn't alone!

Most people share what are called 'gender critical' views, OP. Most people also won't chat about them much. Same as most politics, really.

I totally agree.

If it's of any use I'm interested in talking, texting, emailing, posting on the subject. Couldn't promise to meet in person, but "talking" on here would be great.

Not easy for me (single mum). I just want to feel less isolated. There may be GC women in my circles but I just don't know, like they don't know about me.
Honestly, I thought we would be past this secret handshake-like business by now but it's still so hard to openly meet likeminded people.

Honestly, you’ve got to travel! Go to your nearest, you will meet others and find women local to you who are also there. Work backwards on this problem.
