Considering that the Boy Scouts had to file for chapter 11 bankruptcy due to a deluge of sex abuse lawsuits, I don't think they're the best example. Male sexual perversions have existed for a very long time, autogynephilia included. Ed Wood was a Marine in WW2 and famous for his crossdressing and crazy behavior. He was basically a proto-lolcow, and he grew up in the 1930s, when the cigar clubs you're envisioning probably existed.
We're witnessing things that a cigar can't cure.
This is also kind of ironic, because the Tranch itself is a male-only space.
Also exclusive male-only social clubs, gyms, and bars still exist.
Men trooning out after entrapping their wives with a pregnancy is a tried and true troon tactic. It's also incredibly controlling and abusive. May she take everything in the divorce, inshallah.
