One of the many benefits of being feminine is being cherished and protected. We were neither, so we had to learn how to fight. Choosing to be vulnerable, sexy and respecting to attract a masculine, successful cherishing man can feel life threatening. This group for us, teaches you, supports you, and gives you the 'how to' even when you are afra …

This group (new!) was created for single black women and Asian men, in their 20s to late 40s, to get together.
