FCW Society in the Twin Cities … under way!
We had our third Social for the F*cking Cool Women Society Twin Cities Sunday at Jen’s house and I think it went off beautifully! We had lots of yummy food and the effin’ cool women flowed in and out in abundance. And we actually have locations slated for the next TWO months too! THREE if no one volunteers for April because I’ll do it again! Seriously check out this spread:
And we didn’t have a lot of sweets which I find can sometimes be a “problem” with these things. But enough about the food – I was so happy to have all the women join us that did.

Lolita bar (http://www.lolitabar.net/)
Located on the edge of New York City’s Lower East Side, Lolita bar and event space is a bit off the beaten path but definitely worth the trip. The eclectic décor, spacious back room and downstairs lounge make this a perfect place for any type of party or event.
VAGINA FESTIVAL is an opportunity to have conversations we don’t typically get to have. In ways we don’t typically get to have them.
Through visual art, performance, and interactive activities, Vagina Festival forms a welcoming space for exploring sexuality, body image, personal identity, health and well-being.
At Vagina Festival, we exchange ideas, challenge cultural norms and celebrate women.

Imagine a Woman…
from one woman to another …
Imagine a woman who believes it is right and good she is a woman.
A woman who honors her experiences and tells her stories.
Who refuses to carry the sins of others within her body and life.Imagine a woman who trusts and respects herself.
A woman who listens to her needs and desires.
Who meets them with tenderness and grace.Imagine a woman who has acknowledged the past’s influence on the present.
A woman who has walked through her past.
Who has healed into the present.Imagine a woman in love with her own body.
A woman who believes her body is enough, just as it is.
Who celebrates her body’s rhythms and cycles as an exquisite resource.Imagine a woman who honors the body of the Goddess in her changing body.
A woman who celebrates the accumulation of her years and her wisdom.
Who refuses to use her precious life-energy disguising the changes in her body and life.Imagine a woman who names her own gods.
A woman who imagines the divine in her image and likeness.
Who designs a personal spirituality to inform her daily life.Imagine a woman who authors her own life.
A woman who trust her inner sense of what is right for her.
Who refuses to twist her life out of shape to meet the expectations of others.Imagine a woman who values the woman in her life.
A woman who sits in circles of women.
Who is reminded of the truth about herself she forgets.Imagine yourself as this woman.
