At the Women's Centre, women have the opportunity to meet with other women, to relax, talk or plan action on women's issues. Here we can begin to work together in a safe and nurturing environment, where everyone's voice is equal and valued. For these reasons and many others we feel that a women-only space is essential for women, and ask men to respect this. We encourage men to use the resources such as the library and free condoms, but we ask that men do not 'hang out' in the couch area of the Centre. However, this policy is flexible, dependant upon the women in the Center at the time, and the topic under discussion.
Collective meetings are also closed to men.
