Feminist Current called for a curfew for men.^[1]^[2]

A curfew for men would make women less safe, not more safe. This is because:

Only law abiding men would obey it. A man intent on harming women would go out and do so, unopposed by any men.
Most emergency services and after-hours workers are men. Having all these men home would increase risk for anyone on the streets.

Jameela Jamil has called for two hours a day when only women are allowed outside.

In May 2024 an article appeared on news.com.au suggesting that men should be prohibited from congregating in groups.^[3]^[4]
