You have no place apologising for the remarks of another, and if in my just woken state I have forgotten the context; I must say what I often say to lots of women (and also men)- strangers, friends, colleagues. If something you did or said was with intention, do not ever apologise.
I accept my masculinity as a balance issue, but I think relative to my outward appearance, but for the longest time I've had far more female friends. When the typical "boys" get together, I find myself squamish and want to involve the balance of genders. We have fun as a corpus of society, not by excluding anyone.
Thanks for reminding me. Everyone tells me, but I still find myself apologizing when I shouldn't. Bad habit, I know :)
I reckon male gatherings can bring value to a man's life (from the men I've known, obviously), but also most boys' gatherings aren't like that, really. But yes, generally, the balance of the genders is optimal.
