I am not a feminist, but I have issues with being around men in general as well. Then again, I have an extreeeeeemly hard time being around groups of people, so I might not be a very good person to take any kind of advice from, but I would think your group leader would be a little more understanding! Perhaps the AA for ladies is better. At least there, they can rehash all sorts of stuff, or so I've heard. I think it would be kind of cool to have an all-ladies club (without the whole lesbian/sex/hatred of men angle). I don't necessarily *hate* all men, after all, I'm married and have a son. I just don't trust any other man, since they've never once given me a reason not to.
