Wearing tzitzis, when such is only done by men, could well be a violation
of keli gever. 

CM notes:
Then according to this logic this should also apply to ANY mitzvoh that women have not been mekabel berov tefutsos Yisrael. So if an individual woman wanted to do some mitsvoh that she is patur from and which was not generally accepted as a chumra by most women (eg lulav, shofar etc) then it should be asur as kli gever just like tsitsis? By this logic Michal should have a problem with tefilin. Also for example, whether datan kalos or not etc., women should be assur to do shechita because of kli gever.
