Femme Mafia, originally founded by a group of femmes in Atlanta, "is a progressive, edgy organization of self-identified femmes open to all genders that seeks to foster connections between femmes, reinforce femme identity, and provide members with the occasion to bask in their own fierce fabulousness and the fabulousness of others". Further, "Femme Mafia provides a sense of community, a forum for the examination of our identities, of how each of us fits in the community at large and of how we femmes as a group can make a place for ourselves."
