This kind of clubbishness seems to be especially congenial to men, who seem to enjoy the ritual aspects offered by formal speeches, songs, toasts and parades that require a level of self-discipline, attention to a master of ceremonies and willingness to be silent – especially so when these groups are all-male.
That might have as much to do with the fact that men’s friendships are dominated, at the best of times, by an out-of-sight-out-of-mind effect.

moving on to acceptance
...was going to be in for the long run, i’m not going to get yes’s right away
and part of that means i’ll have to keep searching and with every ‘no’ i receive, it refines further what i want
if getting a yes was so easy i’d recklessly pursue just about anything, right?
