I definitely do not want to have to verify my account by logging into facebook... and I also dont see how this is much different than, say, meetup.com + social media.

As a woman in tech who recently moved to a new city, I'll pass :/

It’s important for our community to authenticate that our users actually identify as women so we leverage FB to confirm that the women are real people. We appreciate the feedback and are already thinking of using other ways to sign up!

Present enables you to start, discover and participate in location-based conversations in real time. There's really nothing like it, let alone a network just for women!

This is an awesome idea! As someone who moved to a new city recently with no friends or family, I've been waiting for something like this to exist!! Super excited to try it out, thanks for sharing!
