Here Are Some Excerpts From The Art of Meeting Women(tm):
"Many gay women express dissatisfaction with the lesbian social scene. Over and over again I hear women talk about how hard it is to meet the women they want to meet."
"We want to meet other gay women for obvious reasons: friendship and romance. Unfortunately, we aren't always sure how to do it. We are social creatures by nature, but we don't come with instructions as to how to make contact with each other effectively."
"When I first started dating women, I noticed how difficult it was for gay women ( including myself ) to be assertive about meeting each other. It surprised me how many of us were infected with a devastating disorder, social insecurity."
"What causes those glue-traps on the bottom of our shoes which stop us from walking toward a woman we want to meet and those dust-mites in our throats which keep us from introducing ourselves?"
"Traditionally women have been socialized to be passive. These childhood lessons strangle our adult social skills."
"Just as a smart softball player needs to stretch her physical muscles before a game, a master mingler must stretch her social muscles before meeting women."
"Too many of us passively wait for the right women hoping they will magically cross our path. Looking for compatible women without having a social plan is like driving to a foreign destination without a map. Knowing where you are going helps you plan the best way of getting there."
