finding sponsor?

I just started attending AA last week and I have been told by many men at the meeting that I need to get a female sponsor now. I should have done it last week.
My question is... why and how?
Why do I need a sponsor so badly? How can I get one if I don't even know anyone. I would love to meet someone who drank the way I drank and had a life similar to mine. I think I would understand her better and vise versa. But I don't know where to start. Can a sponsor be from another meeting group?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
