Feminist/Pro-Feminist
Menstuff® has gathered a list of feminist/profeminist/ and
ally organizations run primarily by men to end violence and
oppression of women, children, and other marginalized people. These
groups represent a growing number of men who have recognized the
damaging effects of living in inequality with women and with each
other and choose to actively engage these concerns.

Stopping Violence - a social change organization dedicated
to ending men's violence against women. Men Stopping Violence
works locally, nationally, and internationally to dismantle belief
systems, social structures, and institutional practices that
oppress women and children and dehumanize men themselves. We look
to the violence against women's movement to keep the reality of
the problem and the vision of the solution before us. We believe
that all forms of oppression are interconnected. Social justice
work in the areas of race, class, gender, age, and sexual
orientation are all critical to ending violence against women. 533

- Ohio University Men Against Sexism is an official
university organization, and a local chapter of the National
Organization for Men Against Sexism (NOMAS). Projects: educational
forums to be presented in the dorms on masculinity (we've already
contacted some Resident Directors, who are interested in hosting
them), men's programming for Take Back the Night, as well as a
possible men's speaker (like Jackson Katz)...also, we are
co-sponsoring a Media Literacy Week, during which we would have
forums and discussions on images of body, people of color,
non-heterosexual people, violence, and whatever else (including
accuracy within media, etc.). Further, we have also discussed
screening various films, such as Tough Guise, with a discussion to
follow. We are also linked up with other groups on campus, such as
Femini! st Coalition, Open Doors (an LGBT group), FUQ (Federation
of United Queers), Positive Action (a group dealing with a range
of social and economic justice issues), and Free Student Press. We
commonly work together to have jointly sponsored events, so OUMAS
would be right in line with such groups. Steve Kehnel, stevekehnel@hotmail.com

- OneinFour
Welcome to the online home of One in Four at the University of
Virginia. One in Four is an all-male sexual assault peer education
group at U.Va. We present a one-hour program, "How to Help a
Sexual Assault Survivor: What Men Can Do," to any group of men who
will listen -- sports teams, residence hall students, student
organizations, fraternities, off campus groups -- anyone. We also
perform for coed audiences from time to time under special
circumstances. Our name, One in Four, has a dual meaning. First,
it refers to the nation-wide research study indicating that one in
four college women report surviving rape or attempted rape since
their 14th birthday. Secondly, we seek to be the ones who inform
other men how to help women recover from a rape experience. One in
Four is composed of over 20 male students at the University. Our
members include student athletes, fraternity presidents, Resident
Staff, University Guides, and leaders from numerous other student
organizations.

- Real Men is an anti-sexist men's group in the Boston
area. Why do we call ourselves REAL MEN? Because we are attempting
to contribute to a new understanding of what it means to be a man.
We believe that, contrary to the popular stereotype about "real
men" as macho tough guys, it is important for men to rethink and
work to change traditional masculinity, which is often more
difficult to do and takes more courage. www.cs.utk.edu/~bartley/other/realMen.html#whatIs

- Tulane Men Against
Rape We are an organization of men and women from
the Tulane Community that is dedicated to educating the Tulane
community and the surrounding areas on the problem of sexual
violence/abuse against women. Our goal is to decrease the amount
of sexual abuse/violence in our community, and hopefully, one day
the lessons we teach will be passed on far enough out to stop
violence/abuse across the entire country. We are a student led
organization, but we do have ties with TUPD. On this site you will
find the laws and statistics on rape, information on becoming a
member or a volunteer, and other general information. Please
explore the site and give some consideration to joining us as a
member or volunteer. www.tulane.edu/~tmar
- Twin Cities Men's
Center The Men's Center is an incorporated,
non-profit, volunteer organization which began as an outgrowth of
the Men's Awareness Network in the Twin Cities in 1973. TCMC
published the large-format Men's Survival Resource Book in 1979.
TCMC began these projects which each became new Twin Cities
organizations: Men in Violent Relationships in 1977 (now the
Domestic Abuse Project), HTLV-lll (HIV) support groups in 1985
(now the Minnesota AIDS Project), and Fathers and Sons support
groups in 1990 (now the Father's Resource Center). TCMC sponsored
the Twin Cities exhibition of Judy Chicago's Birth Project in
1989. The first annual Men's Leadership/Wingspan conference was
hosted by TCMC in 1990. TCMC offers a variety of workshops,
brunches, retreats, playshops, presentations and conferences. TCMC
hosted Midwest Regional Men's Conferences in 1978, 1980, 1983,
1985, 1987, 1989, and 1992. Presenters from these conferences
participate in weekly programs on Wednesday nights at the Men's
Center. In 2001. the TCMC hosted the Men's Health & Well-Being
Symposium. TCMC provides speakers and custom-designed programs for
schools and community organizations. Since 1996, The Men's Center
began offering Anger Management classes, pioneering this vital
healing field.
