An Authentic Men’s Group

What is the difference between an authentic men’s group and a men’s organization?

Carl Jung talks of archetypal elements in cultures.  By this he means rituals, myths, institutions and even architectural forms that exist in every culture.  An authentic men’s group is an archetypal element of every healthy society.  

By an authentic men’s group I mean a men’s group that meets the genetically encoded needs of men for tribal bonding.  Like a healthy diet, such a group must have all the elements that we need for vitality with as few toxins as possible.

Jung spoke of many different types of archetypes.
In this thread there are just 4/5 that we will be focussing on specifically. 
The Warrior 
The Magician/Wise Old Man
The King 
The Lover 
These are all Male Archetypes

....not sure what that is Pulp, I will look it up. But it probably has archetypes in it, as all movies do as well.
