Men's Rights Movement

The Men's Rights Movement (MRM) also sometimes known as the Men's Human Rights Movement (MHRM) is a loose movement of men and women who have identified certain problems facing men as a group and who seek to redress and rectify these problems. The MRM and its participants are routinely subjected to vitriolic attacks and derision by feminist groups and others.

The MRM is a pluralistic movement that accepts internal dissent. It is comprised of many organisations and individuals that are loosely affiliated. Despite this participants within the MRM maintain a largely consistent position on men's rights.

Individuals within the MRM are sometimes known as Men's Rights Activists or Men's Rights Advocates (MRAs). Some adherents to MGTOW identify as MRAs while others do not.

The men's rights movement:

• Rejects violence as a means to affect change
• Rejects male disposability as unnecessary in the modern world
• Rejects traditional gender roles
• Works to resolve certain issues facing men and boys
• Works to eliminate vilification of masculinity
• Works towards equality of opportunity for all

Non-violent Advocacy

Participants within the MRM are committed to non-violent advocacy. MRAs base their advocacy on solid data and clear identification of the problems facing men.

Rejection of Feminist Doctrine

Many aspects of feminist doctrine such as feminist definitions of sexism, patriarchy and intersectionality are generally rejected by MRAs.
