I have to disagree that we aren't making any progress. I don't see that many stories in the news, but sometimes that is a good thing. In New England we are going loud and strong. We have 3 or 4 very active groups. One even meets in a pretty low key restarant and they love them there! I've gone out with a number of girls 2 or 3 of us at a time to malls and stores in the daylight and not had any problems here. Many of us are passable but not all of the time. I think the more people recognize us, the easier it is for us to be out and about.
