When you take the master mason's obligation (oath), you specifically swear not to be at any ceremony to make a woman a mason or allow it to be done if you can stop it.

This was recently in the news in the UK about whether or not to kick trannies out. Grand Lodge there decided you can stay in as long as you were a man when you were made a mason.  So by that, technically, I guess a "woman" could be a mason but natural women can't be made one in the first place. Think the sauce for that was zerohedge or dailymail.

There are affiliated groups where female members have to be related to a mason to join. Order of the Eastern Star and Order of the Amaranth are the biggest of those organizations.  OES is the one with the pentagram.  Amaranth is a flower I but I've never seen them in the area where I live.

There are also affiliated groups for children of masons like Demolay for boys and Rainbow Girls international for girls. Also one called daughters of saint…Jude? I can't remember which saint but that's another smaller offshoot they don't have in my area.

York and Scottish Rites are affiliated orgs for men where you have to be a master mason to join but are specifically NOT "masonic" organizations.

My original point being that women can't be masons in the blue lodge. They do have what they call clandestine masons but they are basically rogue groups who aren't affiliated with AFAM (Ancient Free and Accepted Masons). Another part of your master mason's oath says that you won't talk about Masonic stuff with clandestine masons or attend their lodges.

More than likely these "female masons" are OES and Amaranth members.

Job's daughters. That's the other girls group.

Might dig and see if Kavanaugh is a Knight of Columbus. If so, he's probably not a mason because KofC forbids joining masons.

Masons don't have a restriction on joining KofC but the knights will boot you if they find out you're a mason.

There's tons of really stupid disinformation about masons here. Actually all that happens there is you put your hands on an open bible with a square and compass laid on it and say a few words.

Also, I've only ever seen one sword per lodge unless there's a closet full of them I missed. Sword goes to the tiler who is like the door guard. Sits outside the lodge room playing on his phone and knocks a few times.

Actually, the official text is an unassuming blue book called King Solomon and his followers. Most of it is written in a short hand code. No satanic stuff in it. Pic related.

All the mason bashers should go infiltrate a lodge and report back. All you have to do is go find a local mason and ask to join.

My initial purpose was to learn about their OPSEC and codes. I learned enough to formulate my own system of question and answer password security if needed but was basically disappointed by how boring it all was.

Eh. They don't really go into all that. Like I've said, it's really boring shit once you're in. Kinda wish they'd sacrifice a goat once in a while just to liven things up.

But seriously, if satanic shit happens, it doesn't happen in a blue lodge.

Ever think that "real" masons aren't actually the "real" masons?

I can join any lodge in my state, be appointed to grand lodge offices, and sit in any lodge worldwide so long as they can verify i'm a current master mason. So am I the fake mason or are the "real ones" the true fakes?
