I recently heard that there is an FDR facebook group exclusively for men. (FDR Gentlemen's Club) The concept seems almost redundant considering FDR is already mostly men. Does such a thing exists for the women FDR?

I hereby declare myself the first and only male member thereof!

Up for a lengthy discussion of menstruation then?

I'm not aware of any such group for women. Maybe you can start one, if you think it is a good idea.

I've started listening to this very long podcast of a women's conference, but most of it seems to be about comparing women to men.

We have our obvious differences, be they social or physical.

My own interests include having a place to discuss the meanings of roles we play and that are imposed on us.

What it means to risk our health, forgo or stall our careers to have children. Also the encroaching pressure of declining fertility with age.

Assuming we become stay-at-home moms, what does it mean to be dependent on our husbands in light of libertarian aspirations and values.

Traditional gender roles we are raised in and how that translates what skills we bring to a relationship. (ex. women are generally better at cooking or at least more interested or are trained as nuturers)

We can talk about whatever else comes up, but these are just some of my ideas.

I think those are great ideas. I would definitely be interested in joining such a group if I was a women.  The great thing about being in exclusive groups like this is that you can really relax and focus on specific issues and feel safe because of your shared values and knowledge. I think it is a great thing.

Hi! I like your idea. I would join a group like that.

Send me your email address. I'll add you on Facebook and get this thing started. :)

I'm in!

Cool! Add me of facebook, so I can add you to the group.

I thought of this idea before I heard of all the Feminism problem. So this isn't a reaction to that to be clear with my intentions.

If anyone knows about this group could they send me a message? I've been around awhile & this is the first I've heard of it.

Try searching for the group on Facebook by that title.

I echo what Dave said.  I searched "FDR Gentlemen's Club" on FB and zero results came back.
