I attended a new bookclub yesterday that was advertised as women only but I think one of the people was a TW. Is this allowed? I though it had to be female only. It seemed like this person has been going for a while and people were friendly with him.

Vote with your feet and don’t return. I bet there are a few women in the group who are unhappy having a bloke there but will be too afraid to raise it and risk being ostracised.

I refuse to entertain the ‘be kind’ nonsense and very happy to make my feelings known on the matter.

If it’s advertised as being for women, then this has to exclude all men inc. men cos playing at being a woman.

I run a sewing group that’s for women only. I am happy to also attend a mixed sex sewing group but will not be inviting men to join my women’s group anytime this century.
