Exhausted and overwhelmed, Gretchen Miller felt the frustration of the past three years rise up within her. On a whim the 54-year-old from Sydney posted a message to her local community Facebook group. “Does anyone else feel like screaming?” she asked.
The responses poured in. “I want to scream because of climate change and economic inequality,” one woman wrote. “Because of real estate agents and landlords,” said another. “My fiancé decided he didn’t love me anymore,” read one reply. Miller said she received more than 100 messages in the first hour.
From that callout, the Shout Sisters group was formed. A month later they met for the first time at an inner city park to bellow their frustrations into the Australian night.
n recent months, women-only “scream groups” like Miller’s have cropped up all over the world. Frustration, pandemic exhaustion and the pressures of life are common reasons women say they take part. Most are drawn to the idea of unleashing their anger without inhibition. It’s a freedom participants say is hard to find in a world that can be uncomfortable with women’s rage.
“Women want to scream,” Miller explains. “There are plenty of spaces for men to yell [but] we don’t often get to raise our voices [and] when we do we’re met with disapproval.”

File this under “People I hope won’t be my neighbor”.
I live with 4 of them. Thankfully my ears are mostly shot out and I can’t hear most of their hen fights.
Sounds like complete B.S. to me.
My experience is women scream at least as often as men shout.
This just makes one shake the head in despair for the future of humanity...
Is this an offshoot of the crazy satanic crap that the media were praising Jennifer Anniston for regarding her ritual of meeting with other women in what they call “goddess circles”?
Neurotic and proud of it (and probably more than half of the time, the root cause of their own issues).
Yeesh.
This isn’t new. In the Middle Ages, they called them banshees.
Goes along with the fact that most lieberals have psychiatric issues and are taking prescription psychotropic medications.
“So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it and stick your head out and yell: ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’”
Hunting for that missing 10mm socket.
Give them some boards, very short nails and a hammer. When they bang their thumb, scream. Like we do.
How about an engine head or block with a broken off bolt?
Very thoughtful to keep it to themselves. Is there anything women won’t turn into a social activity? The older I get, the more I value solitude, especially on my daily walks. I am also planning a solitary camping trip. The last I want to hear is screaming, or even talking for that matter.
From what I see the ladies yell way more than men.
I play that Pearl Jam song Wishlist for my wife, “I wish I was a neutron bomb so once I could go off.,”
In every other era of humanity these people would be called insane.
I hear snowflakes in the night.... everywhere.
For the life of me I don't see why some entrepreneur doesn't sell bulk 10mm sockets.
Very high on the crazy axis, likely not high on the hot axis either: no go zone
“This just makes one shake the head in despair for the future of humanity...”
Just pray that they don’t breed.
She would have really lost her voice during the Ice Age meltdown.
That's why we have the My Pillow guy. Scream all you want just it down. If your impulse control issues persist seek menial health professionals, all you may need is sex reassignment surgery.
