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.”

Bobcats sound like screaming women. Maybe when they’re out screaming a pack of them will be called up. Then those women will have something real to scream about.
I hear “Future Screamers of America” in my neighborhood.
There an apartment nearby where primary school age (6 thru 9) often play outside. I can hear them since my windows are open then.
There are one or two kids who let out some bloodcurdling shrieks when they get caught during a game of Tag or Hide & Seek. You would swear they were being chased by Martians or Troglodytes. I’m presuming the top screamers are girls.
“There are plenty of spaces for men to yell”
In their imaginations?
🤣🤣🤣
The penalty for polygamy is more than one wife...
Maybe they just need to get laid.
Sounds like those harridans who were screaming and baying at the moon because some trees in the forest were being harvested. There is a hilarious video on the internet of those lunatics.
Wife and three daughters. My son and I barricade in the mancave.
Hunting for that missing 10mm socket.....
They really need to put 3 of those in each set.

Gives new meaning to the phrase “Screaming Banshee”...
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
“I want to scream because of climate change and economic inequality...Because of real estate agents and landlords...My fiancé decided he didn’t love me anymore”Cause, meet effect.
My ex and my daughter were simultaneously (tumultuously?) going through menopause and puberty.
Sounds like a good time to start sniffing glue.
Will they also hold their breath, and lie on the floor and kick their feet, and throw stuff?
Stories like this make me very thankful I’m married to a very normal, happy, kind, balanced, unbothered, even-tempered, loving woman and mom.
She used to have a good friend who went completely ‘round the bend with the “Resist marches” and pussy hats lunacy a few years back. This story could have been written about my wife’s ex-friend.
Or gluing mouths shut...
Hopefully this cohort will never bear children.
