B1 Debate over all-male clubs has been intensified by city efforts to force them to admit women.

I have no problem with Pine Valley being an all-male club.

The "Tonight Show" band is no longer an all-male club.

They will realize that a man who cannot get a rule changed in an all-male club is not a man to lead the country.

"We're not interested in being seen as an all-male white club."

"I had thought thoroughly whether I wanted to be in an all-male club or not."
