I tried Match.com and I did not find it helpful.  I know there are some great women in SF who haven't had success with online dating services. I would like to put myself out here, and open my world to SF women looking to meet other 50+ years single women.  These Meet Ups will bring single lesbians in SF together. My goal is for those who click, to form your own groups. I believe for some women small groups are the best avenue.  Please put your own Meet Up together and post it on this site.  As o …

I am not finding a whole lot of meet ups dedicated to just making friends with other queer folks. My vision is to meet up, play some basketball (shooting around and after we are warmed up maybe a game), and then maybe go grab a coke and be friends. If that sounds like fun to you, invite yourself and join in! I am new to the area and need friends to spend time with. I love all sports so if basketball doesn't work out let's play some football or frisbee or make some crafts. I love everything!

[FYI: this group is not run by Dr. Michael Brown. In fact, he has nothing to do with it nor indorses it or even knows of its existence as of this writing] In his book, "A Queer Thing Happened to America" (offered on Amazon), Dr. Michael Brown takes a factual look at the history and impact of the Homosexual Agenda. Could it be that like Feminism today, what might have started out as a good thing, a right not to be abused and to be treated humanly, has gone too far? Is it out of control? Can …
