I'm a woman. If I want to meet other women to find friends, all I need to do is look around me - they're everywhere. I attend a community art class like drawing or oil painting - there they are. I go for a hike on the weekend, or a walk around the formal gardens with a friend and they're everywhere. You see several who show up for daily mass, and even more that attend lectures given by visiting professors. In the public library they're checking out the books by Mercedes Lackey, or they're leading a storytime for children. They meet every Tuesday afternoon at a local cafe for a book club. They're bartenders, baristas, cashiers, servers and receptionists - all highly visual positions.

I have no idea where you live, but there must be women someplace. You're just running in male-dominated circles.

I seem to recall you have a teenage daughter? Perhaps you live close enough to her to do some sort of community activity on the weekends or in the evenings with her. Something like a sculpture class or a book club? You're certain to be dragged into a female-dominated environment with a female along for the fun. Not sure how comfortable you would be flirting with a woman when your daughter is in sight, but it's worth a shot for developing female friendships through which you could meet other women.
