I like how you said that Ginger! Big Smile
I've been called plenty of names/titles that i don't always like/agree with...like "Ma'am" or "Lady"...the list goes on!
but unless it's from a friend or used in a friendly way (and i don't mean sexist)...those words never hurt/bother me!!
now i don't like being called a "Lady"...but when i hear Tisha saying every morning on a cruise "Good morning Ladies of Olivia!"...i love that and don't feel bothered at all...in fact i feel home!!!

The problem with "Olivia Guests" is in my "opinion" is that we are not "GUESTS". If it wasn't for us "Women" there wouldn't be a Olivia to begin with. We make Olivia what she is so I for one am proud to be a "Lady of Olivia"!!

Totally friendly and easy going group of gay women. You have plenty of time for yourself and lots of time to be social, too. I remember running into women I had chatted with in this group and it was so much fun meeting them at last. Some of the funniest women, too! I sometimes think us older broads have learned to look in the mirror and laugh. I remember a friend of mine who called me on her 40th birthday. I was one year older. I said, "R, you know how I felt last year? They can kick me but they can't keep me down!" The very best wishes to all "women of Olivia." Oh, I would like to discourage having announcements that begin "Ladies of Olivia. May I have your attention, please?" I find it a wee bit condescending. "Olivia guests" would be sufficient. I really got sick of the "Ladies of Olivia" thing. Maybe it reminded me of the bastardized version of "Ladies of Spain, I adore you...." The rest is obscene but I'm sure a few of you old timers remember it.

Agree with Margaret. There's nothing friendlier than an Olivia trip whether solo or a couple.

We were nervous about our first one but 16 trips later we wonder why we worried!!!!

jshelvey, you will have the time of your life...........

jshelvey, expect women of all ages (single/couple/married) who will be friendly, helpful, and welcoming.  When we took our first Olivia trip we felt right at home and have since made many friends of all ages, both single and coupled. 

 Don't be afraid to ask any questions.  Everyone will do their best to help you out in anyway possible.  There are no stupid questions.  We have all been an Olivia virgin at one time.  Wink

Margaret & K.C.
