I'm so excited it has gotten so big, and presumably will grow much larger! I wish I could go but I won't be around. It will be amazing I'm sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2652046 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 10:44:10 +0000 BSB 2652046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Possibly. I'm definitely interested. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2652033 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 10:29:16 +0000 petitenoisette 2652033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will be there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2652025 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 10:06:31 +0000 catomd00 2652025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, as much as I hate being in DC traffic, I'll be there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2652021 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 09:47:20 +0000 winniebee 2652021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@knittylady: it's that one. I thought I read there would be one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2652019 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 09:46:30 +0000 knittylady 2652019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: add me too!

Or will do something locally. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2652013 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 09:39:18 +0000 winniebee 2652013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: there is a local group organizing. WALL me and I'll add you to the Facebook group. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651978 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 08:30:49 +0000 littlebug 2651978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Madison43: I'm considering it, but have the same fears. My mind just keeps going to the assault on the BLM march in Dallas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651977 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 08:28:01 +0000 lovehoneybee 2651977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're planning on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651913 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 21:30:18 +0000 Anagram 2651913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Now that I'm seriously looking into this, I sure wish they would have picked a weekend other than inauguration weekend---because so many hotels are already booked or the prices are sky high. The weekend before, or the weekend after would have been sooo much better. Especially the weekend before being MLK day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651911 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 21:26:49 +0000 mrsrain 2651911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Planning on it. Just have to work out child care. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651860 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 20:14:25 +0000 Madison43 2651860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@agold: I'm not so concerned about violence against women, specifically. More that I would expect that DC is going to be a powder keg of emotion that weekend, and given the hateful rhetoric and instances of violence that we have seen since the election I would not at all be surprised to see violence during a protest that is supposed to be peaceful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651851 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 19:46:26 +0000 agold 2651851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Madison43: who do you think would be violent against women at this march? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651832 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 17:41:56 +0000 Foodnerd81 2651832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Madison43: I worry about violence too. In general I get nervous now in big crowds that I couldn't get out of quickly. So no, I won't go, but I'm glad it's happening. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651829 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 17:34:14 +0000 nana87 2651829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Too close to my due date in early February for me to travel, otherwise I would definitely go! We have lots of friends and family in DC so it'd be easy to go, but lo1 was 3 weeks early so I won't risk it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651823 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 16:24:39 +0000 DesertDreams88 2651823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It'd cost about $2100 in airfare and hotels bc I'd go with DH and LO, sooooo I will be planning on going to whatever is happening locally. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651816 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 15:43:43 +0000 Anagram 2651816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm thinking about it! Have to check with my husband and see if I can convince him to go and take the girls, or if he wants to stay and I go solo with some girl friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651813 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 15:36:38 +0000 MrsKoala 2651813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to go but it's bad timing for me in terms of work. :/ I'm coming back from mat leave at the beginning of December and I won't have any time to take off at that point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651812 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 15:32:53 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2651812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am interested, but I am due on January 16. I even live just outside of DC. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651799 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 14:40:22 +0000 shellio 2651799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going! I might only be in DC for 36 hours, working on logistics but I want to be there. Hadn't thought too much about the potential for violence (just decided yesterday to go) but as of now I'm planning to bring my DD too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651794 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 14:31:21 +0000 Cole 2651794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Madison43: not awful at all. I considered going but it means a flight plus a long drive since I'd stay with my mom in southern Pa and I'm worried that the city will be filled with Trump supporters and insufficient security. I'll do our local March that day though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651786 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 14:01:58 +0000 yoursilverlining 2651786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband's best friend is flying from LA with some girlfriends to attend! Makes me feel kind of lazy being on the east coast and not going, but I would love to attend one closer to home </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651784 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 13:53:07 +0000 Madison43 2651784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm considering it. Is it awful that I am legitimately concerned about violence? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651783 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 13:50:31 +0000 avivoca 2651783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish i could! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651782 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 13:44:22 +0000 lawbee11 2651782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but I'm doing a sister march at our state capitol on that day. Just easier logistically for me to do a 2-hour drive vs flight + hotel. Wish I could be in DC, though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651781 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 13:29:50 +0000 PurplePeony 2651781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm too far from DC, but there's one in my city and I will probably go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651779 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 13:25:54 +0000 Iced Tea 2651779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If we lived reasonably close, I would go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651777 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 13:11:58 +0000 meredithNYC 2651777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes - I'm going with a group of friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/womens-march-on-dc#post-2651774 Sun, 13 Nov 2016 13:04:16 +0000 yellowbird 2651774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hadn't heard of it but I am definitely interested. I wish I still lived close, but I think if I could swing it I will go. I am tired of feeling voiceless and I need to do something! </p>
