I suppose the most obvious example is men in sheds. It somethings that was created especially to deal with the issue of male loneliness, especially amongst the older community. Basis for being single gender, was to address those older gents who feel pressures to act a certain way around women. This was that one place they could go and just hang out doing wood working and what not. It was for men to make connections with other men, because men, seemingly, struggle with making or even keeping connections.

Enter the women, who think its sexist. Who think that men dont need just time to themselves. Theres mixed sex and single sex(female) things all over the place. But some women see men only spaces, and think "Not on my fucking watch!!!".

Every day we talk about mens mental health, then some gaggle of cave brained cunts turns up to tell men how they have to sort their own shit out. Men in sheds did just that. Then it got popular, and then that same gaggle of cave brained cunts turns up talking about how male only spaces are toxic... Rinse, repeat, ad Infinium

Why cant men have male on spaces? Why can we have our man caves? And if we do, why is it a a bad thing?

Theres a guardian hit piece on the "disappointing" vote to have one of the last remaining gentlemans clubs remain male only. They also have a little go at "mostly white" like thats a fucking crime as well.

Same thing happened at the Flyers club. Men only for 141 years, then all of a sudden women want in and its sexist not to let them.

We cant even just play fucking video games, without getting hammered over the head about how its childish and that we need to grow up. God fucking forbid, we have a fucking hobby and some fun together.
