Should female members have some kind of special treatment because of their XX chromosomes?
What are you, a biologist?

What exactly does this mean? Is there any real power or is it just more of a "club"?

From a standpoint of actual political power, it's probably meaningless. However, if you're part of the "base," as some here describe that faction of the GOP, then it might be mildly hurtful.
"You're NOT ONE OF US," may cost some votes in a reelection campaign, but I doubt it has any real significance. I don't think people vote for whatever "club" (a good description, btw) a candidate is in, rather than their actual positions.
An opponent might capitalize on this by saying "Look! She was booted out of the club! Vote for me, because I'll stay loyal to the tenets of the club."

It does have one advantage. Members have common goals and can engage in bloc voting. If you can swing the caucus, you can swing all of the votes.
The Black Caucus has had some success over the years.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Is there an (alleged) antisemite caucus? Maybe she could join that.

The leadership-bucking House Freedom Caucus is facing a watershed moment, as several internal clashes risk ripping the group apart.
The intense flare-up centers around the Monday night ouster of Rep. Warren Davidson (R-Ohio), led by allies of Chair Bob Good (R-Va.), who is on the precipice of losing his own reelection bid. Davidson had endorsed Good’s primary challenger, John McGuire.
The 16-13 decision to remove Davidson — a move his allies felt bent the group’s bylaws, and took place when some Davidson supporters weren't present — has members predicting that others will resign over the matter. One lawmaker already announced directly after the vote that they would: Rep. Troy Nehls (R-Texas).
“I’m sure we’ll have some,” Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) said about the possibility that more members will soon depart the group. “We’ve got a lot of issues to address.”
