So I was reading this article on “The Club” all women, wealthy women and decided to compare them to Amazonians, and there seems to be a connection in the culture

Classic patriarchal entitlement complex': Female members hit out at 'loser, cuckolded men' joining The Wing, the private club sanctuary aimed at high-flying women

The Wing bills itself as a women's club with houses across the US and in London. But it has been forced to allow men inside after being sued for discrimination

—Some blasted the men as 'losers' and 'cucked boyfriends', while others accused them of harboring a 'classic patriarchal entitlement complex'

Members of an exclusive women's club have hit out after organizers were forced to allow men inside following a discrimination lawsuit.

__Female members of The Wing - which has clubhouses across the US and in London - described the men as 'losers', 'cucked boyfriends' and accused them of ruining the club with their presence.

—Once said male visitors display a 'classic patriarchal entitlement complex' by wanting to be inside the clubhouses, which are billed as a space for female empowerment.

—It currently has 11 locations in New York, Chicago, DC, Boston, Los Angeles and London. Two more locations are planned in Seattle and Toronto.

__The firm boasts 11,000 members worldwide with another 35,000 on the waiting list.

—The Wing was founded in 2016 and initially promoted itself as a women-only space, but in January this year it was forced to revise that stance following a $12million discrimination lawsuit brought by 53-year-old James Pietrangelo in 2018.

—Pietrangelo alleged in his suit that, after he applied for membership at one New York branch, he was told he would be declined specifically because he is a man.

—Another member of staff told him his application would be continuously deferred, effectively denying him membership, he said.

The discrimination lawsuit is not the first time The Wing has run into controversy - The Human Rights Commission of New York also opened an investigation into the club's practices in 2017

—The Wing has also been accused of discriminating against low-income women who could most benefit from the networking opportunities it provides.

In mythology, the Amazons were daughters of Ares, the god of war.

They were members of a women-only society where men were welcomed only for breeding purposes and all male infants were killed

Another Anatolian connection was at Ephesus, where it was thought Amazons had sacrificed to the goddess of hunting Artemis at her temple there and performed war dances, a ceremony repeated annually thereafter

—Herodotus (c. 484 – 425/413 BCE), writing in his Histories (Bk. 4, 110-117), gives a lengthy description of a meeting between Amazons and Scythians. Young warriors of the latter group persuaded a number of visiting Amazons to set up a new society together, with the women insisting neither they nor their offspring would change their lifestyles at all.

—Essentially, the society of the Amazons was thought of as Greek male-society in reverse and so they pursued such traditional male-dominated activities as horse-riding, hunting, and warfare.

In legend (with no supporting historical evidence), the Amazons burnt off their right breast in order to better use a bow and throw a spear, indeed, the term a-mazon was popularly understood as meaning ‘breastless’, although alternative meanings include ‘one breast’ or ‘not breast-fed

One final interpretation is that the name derives from the Armenian, meaning ‘Moon-goddess', and refers to priestesses of the Moon on the southern shores of the Black Sea who did, on occasion, bear arms
