Aside: I ran across an utterly horrifying movie from last year called "Soft Quiet." Six women, all but two of them strangers, gather in a church meeting room with pastries and pie . All very supportive and feminine and lots of hugs and self-deprecating laughter with tons of woman talk.

Then they start talking and it's all bigotry over multiculturalism; the organizer uncovers the cherry pie she'd baked and it has a swastika cut into the crust. The first to introduce herself gripes over a Latina woman getting a promotion she wanted.

It ends up being, by virtue of complete believability, one of the most frightening movies I have ever seen.
