Yeah, I've seen a lot on the "male loneliness epidemic" and I've been lonely myself sometimes but people framing it as a lack of spaces accepting of men is really confusing to me. Do people really think there's some dearth of clubs to join for men out that adding another one will make a difference? Like I couldn't avoid being in clubs without fully dropping my hobbies. Martial arts is a good example of a generally pretty social space that's obviously very welcoming to men (I've recently been doing historical longsword fencing and there are a wide variety of weirdos successfully socializing in there) but I also do birdwatching with a group and volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitator and both of those are also pretty social.
