Yes there are.
You will, however, not be impressed by those women.
There's always Louise Perry's theory that it's caused by the degeneration of gender roles in ways that specifically make the experience of being a young woman high stress(in the mind of an adolescent girl). I think her data did show some correlations with family attitude towards gender roles.

The boys and girls boy scout troops are totally segregated by boy scout policy... for exactly that reason.

The Latin Mass growth post 2005 was not primarily driven by online spaces, it was driven by changes in canon law and existing IRL networks which later had a large online component mostly by tapping into the backlash to pope Francis and later to demand for covid-unconcerned Catholic networks. I was there for much of this and the incorporation of the online component was hugely controversial.

Hickman doesn't get along well with other tradcaths because his philosophical positions, uh, don't come off well, and tradcaths are used to frighteningly extreme entryists no one wants to be around. He could move to St Mary's(the SSPX's quarantine village for their in house crazies). Hickman wants his particular going your own way thing, but he's not going to find a community built around it except maybe the Amish.

FtM or MtF transgenderism? These are meaningfully different things.

It’s called north woods or north haven or something. It was a client of a company I worked for a while back and one of the reasons I was assigned to their campus was because customers could see white people if they needed service while they were open. I was told by my supervisor that they didn’t allow nonwhites to join or women to join on their own.
The longshoreman’s Union may not technically have a ‘whites only’ policy, but it definitely engages in some discrimination to maintain an all-white workforce.

College football is crowding out NFL fandom in every social circle I participate in. MMA and boxing are still reasonably popular among coworkers(with a very sharp income gradient; thé more money you make, thé more you like boxing- and like most trades workplaces, there’s a large pay difference between entry level guys and experienced ones). Hardcore sports fans around me are getting into MLS, keeping college ball, and dropping basketball entirely(this may vary by region). Texas A&M is the new cowboys as the default fandom.
Don’t get me wrong; I see evidence of cowboys fandom everywhere I go, as a generic corporate thing. But more ‘fandom’ tends to be for college sports.

They literally exist. Many fraternities and unions are this in practice, a few country clubs maintain it as explicit policy, and of course there’s the hells angels.

NFL players have a decent-ish IQ proxy on file and their intelligence varies by position quite a bit; QB’s mostly would be honor roll students if they’d studied(QB’s, of course, are expected to study football, not academic subjects), D-linemen would… not.

Really? Fraternities have been in the news again.
Social outcry is not the same thing as a legal barrier. In my metroplex one of the more prominent country clubs still requires that every member family be headed by a white male. Unions often have similar policies.

Technically, aren't most of these groups private clubs, who can be as discriminatory as they like? You can have your white men’s club just as much as you want(although dues are likely well beyond your price range).

I’m certainly of thé impression that was true for the IRA- but Ian paisley was one of the more important unionist figures, wasn’t he?

Something about French redditors being upset about videogame stores being terribly affected.

He's not saying it's acceptable. He's saying it isn't rape. There are many bad non-rape things.

I would guess, given the demographics of both gamers and rioters, that video game stores are disproportionately looted.

There's probably tons of vets that really want to work with exotic animals on a zoo staff, not so many jobs to go around- this is the usual pattern for such things- the majority of vets being women working on designer dogs is because owners of designer dogs have money to spend.

Since women are equal to men, the notion they're "too re-traumatized" is special pleading.
They are not equal in this sense. Women are in general much weaker and lower in fortitude than men.

Watermelon is an african-american stereotype, but I think in context it means 'commies deep down'.

'Paranoid'? Jean-Luc Melenchon is just openly cheering it on.
In 2018-2019 there started being large contingents of extremely online young male converts. They didn't fit in very well. Pre-Pope Francis traditional Catholicism, as a movement, had no answer at all; the expectation was that men were in religious life, or else heads of families, with some minor allowance for twenty year olds that were still in college/working on being ready to marry providing that they were connected to an existing large traditionalist family. This was cliquish and unhealthy, but traditional Catholics are not immune to psychotic brainworms. The newcomers often rubbed the locals the wrong way, of course- several got yelled at for hitting on teenagers(in fairness, the teenaged girl/young woman distinction is, uh, not one rad trads are particularly insistent on in other contexts, and is probably not quite as obvious), they were often vulgar by local standards, many were motivated more by political conservatism than the classic motives for traditional Catholics- which are either completely sincere religious motivations, a genuine belief in large families(the average age in IRL rad trad communities is generally middle school, not middle aged... very high fertility rates are part of the program), or moral puritanism- and some didn't seem to realize that they are attempting to join a religion which prides itself on inventing the term 'dogma'. In 2020 this existing tension just kind of blew up into irrelevancy with the sudden influx of... everyone who didn't like their diocese's covid policy(and subsequent growth for the surviving latin masses after TC). The stereotypical tweed and pipesmoke image just generally took a while to integrate newcomers, and while the fourchan types were disproportionately blamed there was lots of frustrations with everyone else too.
The online trad-cath-o-sphere? What do you mean by that? Like Dr Taylor Marshall and lifesitenews have plenty of detractors on the basis of spreading ridiculous conspiracy theories and platforming churchbashing. Taylor Marshall is a nice enough guy in real life, of course, but lots of people who like him as a person and don't even particularly disagree with him would criticize his podcast as Not Helping. Tradcath twitter has the distinction between Nazis who don't believe any Catholic doctrine or go to mass but like the aesthetics and IRL rad trad twitter, both have their critics but the typical IRL rad trad literally doesn't know about the former- they think the complaint about awful rad trads on twitter is, like, the Dimond brothers, and complaints about 'traditional Catholicism as cover for racism' is just libs using their favorite R-word.
