I picked a ridiculous hobby like model helicopters as a stand-in for something that you're not likely to find very many people interested in: not enough for it to make sense to form 2 separate and exclusive clubs.

It doesn’t matter what the example is- it’s still a club. Anyone can form their own club. You can substitute whatever less ridiculous hobby, what I said would still be my response.

Wanting a specific demographic and making a group for that demographic is enough reason to form however many groups as anyone wants to form. Whether or not the public approves or denounces the existence of the group is a different thing- the specific group can still exist, the people who feel some type of way can boycott (which wouldn’t matter), protest (likely wouldn’t matter), get over it, or form a club that includes them. Again, why would a woman want to force her way into a men’s club when she can invite people to her own club? There wouldn’t have been an all men’s club until some man or men made it. She can make a club herself. Again again- we tell transwomen to make their own and advocate for their own, why can’t a woman make her own club?
