Can we draw the following hypothesis from the context?

Context:

It is part of their religion, a religion I do not scoff at as it holds many elements which match our own even though it lacks the truth of ours.

First the drummers come on - I may say that no women are allowed to take part in this ritual and the ladies here will perhaps agree with me that they are fortunate in that omission.

Hypothesis: no women are allowed to take part in this ritual
