I personally don't think that it is in violation of anything. We have the same set up in a meeting on Wednesday night here. This meeting has been around for a long time. We have three rooms and the men meet in one and the women meet in the other. Personally I don't contribute to the meeting because our literature says one addict helping another addict is without parallel.

I hear all the time men with men and women with women! No where in the first 103 pages of the Program of recovery does it say that. That stuff is treatment stuff, NOT NA. I don't oppose it, I don't participate in it that is my choice. I am not saying that it is wrong or right. I think that it just is. So if One female addict is helping another female addict that is too without parallel and it also says all you need to start a meeting is two addicts caring and sharing. Just my 4 cents this time

Love Vic
