can anyone recommend some women's shorts with a nice chamois pad that doesn't have that horrible sticky stuff on the cuffs of the legs, that really grips. i hate that stuff, feels like its cutting off the circulation.
I don't think you will get shorts without leg grippers, unless you go for baggies. I find that longer shorts with the grippers closer to the knee are less restrictive in that way.
There was an insert in the last edition of Cycle which had non lycra, non shiny, non gripper cycling shorts for men (not baggies). It had ladies adverts on the other side, but obviously I didn't look at those. I'll dig it out and see if it has any.

No leg grippers on the Ground Effect Witches Britches. Don't know about their other girly shorts though (the Britches are 3/4 lengths).
I can confirm that Ground Effect Jitterbugs don't have any leg grippers. I find them really comfy, they don't ride up and they're made of nice, not too shiny lycra.
