Be the change you wish to see in the world.

It really comes down to this: if you want your own space for particular interests, you should create one and find likeminded people to populate it. Just waiting for it to magically appear isn’t going to work. Be assertive.

how would they stop men from participating?

There is no resonable way to do that.

The only way I could see it being done while perserving some kind of anonymity would be to have a defederated instance, where members are invite-only, where members can invite their friends to join, there by verifying that there are no men joining.

Unfortunately, there is no good way of verifying the gender of a person that you don't meet outside of a forum.

Just make it obvious that it's meant for women and most men will exclude themselves
