We are strong women who are re-inventing age, seeing ourselves at least 12 years younger. We know who we are and what we want.  We are generally tired of social scenes where we are not as young as most,  but, certainly not "old"!  We wish we could just hang out, relax, and have fun with others our own age. We are on TOP of the proverbial "hill", not ready to start going downhill! We are …

Ever notice how there is NO gay neighborhood in Portland, OR? Also, there isn't a full time LESBIAN bar here anymore either. So my fellow lesbian friends and I thought it would be super smart to create a LESBIAN SOCIAL CLUB. LESBIAN SOCIAL CLUB: We'll pick a date, time and spot every month for lesbians to congregate. We've heard of this working before in other cities so we thought we'd try it here. Nothing formal just a suggestion..."Hey all the lesbians are hanging here tonight....and so on!"

You will never feel bad for not finishing the book here! 4. Last but not least we wont take ourselves to seriously. This is about meeting new friends and having a good time. …

Hello ladies! This is a Meetup group in their 30's and 40's who live in Portland proper and would like to make new friends while participating in fun activities. I've been a member of other Meetups and noticed that a lot of the events are held in the Beaverton/Tualatin areas.
