There are all sorts of gender specific clubs and groups in Canada though so are those problematic? I have a friend who runs a company which organizes monthly outings and events specifically for females. There are countless professional groups and organizations for women in business/sciences/engineering/medicine etc. Some of those groups host events and seminars where they specifically seek out female presenters or speakers. How are these types of "girls" clubs any different?
