Tbh I have a habit of doing it myself, because one has been decided offensive while the other has not. The other option in this case isn’t “men” either, rather it’d be “boys,” Camp Green Lake being a juvenile detention facility, and “boys” inverse “girls” can often be interpreted objectionably as well. (Not to mention the whole “holes” correlation, uhh, might not want to associate that with juveniles…)
Though also I think this is the first time I’ve ever seen “males” called out like the inverse word.
Interesting choice to say “males” for men and “women” for women
Why is that interesting?
One would think that the brain would choose one form or another instead of mixing and matching when words have pairs
Males and females
Men and women
Gentlemen and ladies
Boys and girls
But here they used males and women

Huh? Anything like “men and girls” is weird, but “boys and girls” is completely normal
I’m just going to drop this right here:
I took it while visiting my brother in jail. Kentucky.
