I'd keep it. Yes, mention the euphemism.

It's not exclusively used self-referentially though. (I once interviewed Mitsuhiro Kimura of the "shin-uyokudantai" Issuikai and as I remember it he told me they didn't turn away members of 任侠団体 from their meetings)

The note should maybe mention it's a euphemism as well

I don't think "often" is needed.
