100 Women We Love Class of 2010

As the first decade of the new millennium comes to an end, we take a moment to celebrate 100 out lesbians who have made the past year one of inspiring change and amazing progress.

Meredith Schlosser

Real estate agent and social networking entrepreneur Meredith Schlosser wants to help the LGBT community “bring their social circles together.” Her newly formed Out Social Networking group provides a venue for LGBT people to mingle, make contacts and promote their businesses outside of a bar/club setting. With 275 current members, Schlosser is working on expanding the group, acquiring sponsors and launching a website. Despite her busy schedule, she also finds time to volunteer and donates to a number of charities. Schlosser would like her fellow twenty-something lesbians to be a bit more daring: “I’d like to encourage people to take more chances and approach more people. I think that New York City is the empire of lesbians and instead of segregating ourselves into little niches I think we need to work on coming together and breaking down our barriers.” -CB
