I recently went to a queer/sapphic event. I had to go out of town for it, there's so very few wlw events in my area, if any at all.
The amount of cishet men who showed up, had the event explained to them, and still paid cover to stand awkwardly in the corners or tried in vain to hit on attendees was baffling.
One guy just stood uncomfortably close to a couple who were dancing and kissing, and he just stared.
The people working the door did their best to explain that maybe this event isn't the best one for them but nope. They wanted to come invade a feminine and queer space even though they were none of these things.
I used to run these types of events and we were never able to explicitly say cishet men weren't welcome because they'd get us shut down for being exclusionary.
Why? Why do they do this. Well. I know why. But on what fricking planet is this acceptable?
Just let us have this one thing.
the OP is 38 AFAB, homoromantic and omnisexual
A person who is homoromantic is romantically attracted to people who are the same or a similar gender as them.
People who identify as omnisexual are attracted to those of all gender identities and sexual orientations.

This must be what men feel when we invade their golf clubs.

Omg it was a big scandal at this super fancy golf club where I grew up. They were forced to admit women/let women play. I'm a feminist/equalist but darn just let the men escape their wives for an afternoon.

Women's hockey is being shoved down leafs throats. It's awful. Sportsnet is considering putting women's highlights during NHL intermissions.

Women's hockey is at least entertaining to watch. Sure the lack of hits is dumb ("What if they might be pregnant?!?") and they skate slower, shoot softer, have worse coordination and awareness, and frick up elementary skills all the time, but hockey is just so fricking good of a sport that it's still worth watching when there's a big competition.
Plus unlike a few notable female sports the women hockey players are often total babes under that full suit of armour.

Like usual, you don't fully understand the situation because you have 4 holes with your brain being the bonus hole. The argument about the country clubs specifically is that many business meetings and deals are made in exclusionary clubs and that this put women at a disadvantage in the business world. This may or may not change your opinion (it doesn't for me) but it's a lot more complicated than "hurr durr getting away from nagging front holes"
