Men's spaces
Men's spaces are areas or organisations which are reserved for the use of men. Sometimes non-men may be permitted to enter as guests. Since the 1960s there has been a steady decline in the availability of men's spaces in Western nations while women's spaces have flourished.
Women have been forcing their way in to men's spaces since the 1960s.[3][4] As a result of the rise of the trans movement women's spaces are now under attack. As a result of the loss of men's spaces starting in the 20th century, many men are unwilling to do anything to stop the loss of women's spaces in the 21st century.
Presented here are examples of lost men' spaces across the Western world. The list also includes spaces intended for boys which girls were permitted to enter.

In 1970 Girls allowed to enter the Scouts Venturing, Sea Scouting, and Explorers programs.[5]
