I was reading with interest the OYS post from u/weakandsensitive about the trip to Vegas and the strip clubs. I haven't seen much on here about the value of boys nights but we all need to emphasise the value of such nights out, sans women. Of course the boys weekend and camping / hunting / fishing trips also equally get a massive shout out, and if you don't have a good bunch of brothers to get away with or go out with then you need to put this on your MAP along side all of the self improvement activities you are up to like lifting, and not being a pussy. Stop playing dungeons and dragons or call of duty or whatever is popular now, ring some friends, go and do some man shit, with other men, where someone might get hurt (e.g. sports) or something might get broken (e.g. 4wheeling).
I am fortunate to have a group of 10+ friends who almost all went to high school together (yes, now over 20 year ago), and for this i am very lucky. Each of us is into a range of different sports, but we pretty much all get involved in each others. I love to surf and spearfish, but i'll go mountain biking cause some of them love it. When we organise mutli day activities, usually the first question to answer is, is this a 'boys trip' or a bring the family trip? We make sure to do both.
The night out event is also of equal importance, getting dressed up and getting out on the town, practicing game etc. The days of regular rowdyness are gone, but of course there is still the occasional "big night". Its cathartic for the soul. We often have to drag one or two of us out with the group, its rarely the wrong decision to go.
To touch on the comments about strippers, if you go to a strip club purely for sexual excitement, I think you are missing the point. You go because a strip club is a boys club, free from 'real' women chatting in your face and asking for drinks. Yes the strippers are annoying, but it makes for a good boys night, purely because there are no women to 'behave' around.
TL;DR - if you dont have a bunch of bros to go out with and do cool shit, fix this in your life.
EDIT: NOT promoting strip clubs, agree they are soulless. Find a boys night activity away from real women from time to time, whatever works for your crew.
