    i'm all for the "females only" thing but I did something similar to this and requested "men only" and the women went on a e-rampage and really felt offended. Double standard here?

    Hi to the new ladies on MFP..

    Just because the op bailed, please don't give up the opportunity to friend each other and start getting what you want for yourselves - even start a group for yourselves maybe.. the support and encouragement of women my own age (WAY over 50 lol) and at the same stage of life is what made the difference for me in finally losing the weight ( that and all the awesome help and knowledge avail from all the MFP community (male and female LOL).

    Cheers and welcome to MFP! :)

    Well that's some people. I totally understand the wanting of support from the same gender. :smile:

    Hello I started last week, you can add me as a friend. The more support you have I believe the better the outcome. Any posters can add me also. Good Luck to all. :)

    I feel a little less self conscious talking weight, diet & exercise with women, all my friends are female so far & I'd love some more!

    Hi everyone! I have hit a bit of a snag in my weight loss. Started out fantastic and over the last few weeks I have hit a wall :( I am a vegetarian, 25, and a manager for a pharmacy company. If anyone would like to be my friend and can help me out and get me over this hump please add me! Happy weight journey to all!

    To each, their own. I would not be offended if someone requested males only. I have a great mix of both on my friend list.
