It's not a false equivalence because I'm not comparing the two, I'm using it to point out the glaring flaw in your argument that because A didn't exist x number of years ago it isn't needed now. Things change and the needs of people change, this is not a complicated concept. You continue to ignore the fact that there could very well be reasons for such a group, including the shifting roles of men in society, changes in what masculine identity means and a variety of other gender issues. Instead of considering that there are issues that could be addressed, to the benefit of all, you dismiss the very notion, which is a really smart way to do things.
