We all know the men's rights movement is growing.

Themes relevant to the MRM sometimes appear in popular music. No doubt this will become more common as our movement grows.

Ace of Base

All that she wants is another baby.
She's gone tomorrow boy.

I played my cards and I didn't fold
Well it ain't that hard when you got soul (this is my world)

I'm a soldier standing on my feet
No surrender and I won't retreat (this is my world)

... as does this.
