      I recommend the paid subscription masons, the ads in the free version are really obnoxious

      Yeah. I joined in my 20s and enjoyed it, but it was a bit too old of a crowd for me to really fit in. I figure I’ll go back in my 40s.

        Too many of my relatives are Masons, I figure it would just be like hanging out with my old relatives.

          Hahaha it can definitely feel that way sometimes. There were a few younger guys at my lodge but we never really clicked. On the plus side, politics are never talked about in the lodge so I never felt like I was around a bunch of conservatives or anything like that. It was a great experience and everyone was open-minded and friendly.

          I ended up working on a project for the lodge for a few years with a small group that was guys in their 40s to 80s, and it felt great to get several father figures. They gave me some great guidance in my young adulthood.

          I’ve heard that the Shriners attract a younger crowd and they apparently have some crazy parties, but I never got that far. You need to be a Mason to become a Shriner.
