A current particpant wrote a Fem2pt0 blog post on her experience with fem•ex – read it here!

The group is currently pursuing a non-profit 501c3 status, and has been in existence since 2008, when Lisa Molinaro, who participated in and facilitated FemSex (Female Sexuality) – a women’s empowerment course created by and for students at UC Berkeley – moved to DC and modified the curriculum for a group of friends, meeting once a week to explore their female identities. The success of the experiment led to more formalized groups – bringing together strangers in living rooms across DC for 16-week sessions. After two-and-a-half years, fem•ex has reached over 150 women in the DC area. Read more here!
