If all the gender-neutral groups were predominantly female, maybe they'd have a point. But even then they're not getting any sympathy from me - I've only ever had one work environment that even approached gender parity (much less was predominantly my gender) and that was only on the bio side - chem side had a single woman.

OTOH, maybe a male-oriented group will prepare them for the real world where they still get to assume that their worldview is more important (I assume that's why there are a few women in the group, so the men can practice patting themselves on the back for being inclusive while not having to actually give up any privilege while the women get to practice dealing with that sort of jackass).
