Letting those in who identify as male would create a slippery slope where the original purpose of the clan becomes diminished. Even if a person is "checked out" prior to allowing him in there are just some gamers out there that feel uncomfortable with a male present. This could also potentially cause internal problems for those members who joined when only people who identify as female were let in. What people have to understand is that this isn't the only clan around. There are hundreds more out there for you and others to choose from that don't require you to identify as female. Find one that suits you and your preferences. So don't take it personally. It isn't a judgement of your character or anything, this clan just isn't for you.
