> I'm sure I'm exaggerating, but bear with me: A lot of the traditional men's spaces look like avenues for social advancement that are closed to women. This may be incidental because men have historically run things and the politicking and networking naturally occurred in spaces where men congregated, but incidental or not, attempting to bar women from traditionally male spaces today has the effect of locking women out of society, so to speak. In a vacuum, a club where men hang out exclusively is no different than a club where women hang out exclusively, but in reality the sheriff and mayor are rubbing elbows at the elk lodge, not at the women's gym down the road. As long as men hold the reins, locking women out of the spaces where men hobnob is another tool of control. Why can't they get their own elk lodge, hmmm? Money/Control/Power is not a fixed quantity jealously guarded by ragtag formations of men. It's something generated by an activity of some sort. Do the activity, reap the rewards. I'll let Bill Burr explain the simple male brain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWhZ2XS08aQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWhZ2XS08aQ
