That is when men went off and set up their own movement. The men s movement is still largely unheard of to many people, but has taken many different forms. Some branches of so called masculinists have been predominately anti-feminist and set up as a reactionary opposition to women s rights. Other more liberal masculinist groups are pro-women s rights, but concentrate on sexism against men and the problem of extremist feminism. They fight for men s rights in divorce courts, child custody cases and false rape allegations.
Some groups see the bonding of both men s and women s rights.
Another type of group is the men against sexism against women type of group. Where men work together to stop other men from abusing women. Probably the most famous type of men s group is the spiritual development type of group. These groups focus on helping men get in touch with their feminine sides and anger management. Even though men in the women s movement have a reputation of being homosexual, many straight men have turned to the ideal of New Man in order to treat their wife s and girlfriends better.
