Yeah, and it wasn't until 2000, I think, 15 that Susanna Budapest indoctrinated her first male clergy member into Dianic Wicca and other Dianic Wicca temples split off. And so it's rare to find a man in this religion. Like, it's all women. And I read that they're anti-patriarchy. They actually try to use their magic against the patriarchy. But they're not anti-male.
