Welcome. Feel free to post a message. We hope that you will meet other womyn with similar interests, make new friends, or even find a traveling companion for Womynfest At Sea. The fun starts now! The fun starts here!
I think it is a rather silly expectation to meet single women on a cruise. We are not gay men looking for sex in any available bathroom. Most cruisers (just because of the cost) are generally older to begin with anyway. This was an event that had women from all over the country attending. To think you would meet someone is not realistic. To find fault with the cruise is ridiculous. It was fantastic. Yes, it was not perfect, but what is? This was never advertised as a way to meet girls but as an affordable (less than Olivia) option for a GROUP of women (we were a group on the ship-not the entire ship.) If you want to meet single women-please let the rest of us know where that cruise is going because only the boys seem to have them. Perhaps you wouldn't mind spending the next year organizing it all for us.
I guess the experience is different for everyone, and I can't speak for the single gals, but from my perspective the opportunity to go on a cruise with 200+ women and still be able to bring straight female and gay male family with us was the best of both worlds for us. We chatted with a number of friendly and interesting women, and found that we didn't have time to participate in all the varied activities available. To be able to see Alaska at the best time of year, smooth seas and abundant wildlife, on a very posh ship, I can't say enough about it!
We were also disappointed with the turnout. It would have been nice to have taken over 1/3 of the ship and still have both worlds of entertainment to enjoy.
This was our third cruise. We've decided our future vacations will be on land.
