Overseas Women's Club

rbbm · Sep 11th, 2009, 15:04

So I just read that one can only become a member if:

1. One is a woman (implied-not stated explicitly on the website)
2. Has a foreign passport
3. OR has a spouse with a foreign passport.

While I'm as brown (and having a desi passport-atleast for the next few months) as the next person, my husband has a foreign passport (aka an ABCD). My question is-will I be the only desi woman there or are there more of my type?

BTW-Nick-if you're reading this-thanks for your response re. water filters...and stuff...

I always read threads with "women" in the title. Can't imagine why?

RBBM,
Have you gone to the Overseas Women's Club meeting yet? Any thoughts? I have been thinking of joining too.

Thanks!

SG,

I haven't joined yet. I saw their meet-ups are on weekdays which don't work for me.

Thanks, RBBM! That wouldn't work for me either. I work full time.

Well, hoping to meet new Chennai friends through IM meet-up. Hope to meet you then, too.

If at all there were a "men only club" they would have called it a gay club..wonder why such discrimination against us men who are born equal, if not better
