Ever wonder why: * Men are one-third more likely to develop prostate cancer than women are to develop breast cancer, yet 50% more funding goes to women's health over men's * Men and women commit domestic abuse against each other at roughly equal rates (for every level of severity), yet there is 1 men's shelter in all of Canada * Men now account for under 60% of undergraduate enrollment while boys are performing significantly worse then girls in grade school, yet affirmative action programs continue to "empower women and girls" only This is a group to organize meetings to discuss gender issues involving parental and custody rights, violence, education, health, safety & security, poverty, safety and security in the workplace, and media discrimination, from a male perspective. However, other topics will be explored at the pleasure of the members. We are also looking for individuals to volunteer on public outreach and awareness projects, including a podcast, lecture series and special campaigns. Please contact justin.trottier@gmail.com. Visit the blog www.equalismactivism.com for regular postings on these issues.
