France: Institut du genre - Les études de genre ne sont pas une discipline mais un vaste champ de recherche. La question des constr - uctions « genrées » et des rapports de sexe concerne toutes les pratiques, sociales et symboliques, et traverse tous les champs de pensée et de savoir.

Les hommes : nouvel objet de recherche - Les études des « masculinités » sont longtemps restées marginales en Europe. (Masculinities Studies) Michael Kimmel a publié et édité d’importants ouvrages dans ces domaines, dont The Gendered Society (2011 [2009]), Men’s Lives (2010 [1989]) et Changing Men : New Directions in Research on Men and Masculinity (1996 [1987])

Le questionnement des masculinités, dans le champ des études de genre,  a souvent été et reste encore un objet, au mieux oublié et méconnu, au pire instrumentalisé, en tous cas sous-traité et maltraité... Une histoire politique du mot montre que selon les périodes, les pays, les langues, le terme de masculinisme a pu être revendiqué par des hommes pro-féministes critiques des antiféministes (comme une sorte de pendant au mot féminisme) et, à l’opposé par des hommes antiféministes au nom d’un « ressac » viriliste revanchard. Il n’est dès lors pas surprenant que les femmes, féministes ou non, aient une conception et une utilisation opérationnelle contradictoires de ce terme.

Pro-feminism refers to support of the cause of feminism without implying that the supporter is a member of the feminist movement. The term is most often used in reference to men ("male feminists") who actively support feminism and its efforts to bring about the political, economic, cultural, personal, and social equality of women with men. A number of pro-feminist men are involved in political activism, most often in the areas of gender equality, women's rights, and ending violence against women.
Pro-feminist men also are involved in men's health, men's studies, the development of gender-equity curricula in schools, and many other areas. Pro-feminist men who support anti-pornography feminists participate in activism against pornography including anti-pornography legislation. This work is sometimes in collaboration with feminists and women's services, such as domestic violence and rape crisis centers.

He coordinates, edits and contributes to XY, a pro-feminist website providing a range of commentary and research on men and masculinities, male sexuality, feminism, the men's movement and male violence from a feminist perspective. He also coordinates The Men's Bibliography, an online collection of over 22,000 works on men, masculinities, and gender.

Bob Pease - University of Tasmania  - I have been involved in researching, writing, teaching and profeminist activism in relation to men and masculinities for over 20 years. I first engaged with the critical scholarship on men and masculinities because I wanted to theoretically inform my practice as a profeminist activist. I was involved in Men Against Sexism in Tasmania the 1980s; I was a co-founding member of Men Against Sexual Assault, which was formed in Melbourne in 1989; and I was one of the organizers of the first White Ribbon Campaign against men’s violence in Australia. Therefore, for me, the critical interrogation of men and masculinities was always connected to profeminist activism. My PhD was on profeminist masculinity politics: examining the pathways for men who take on profeminist subject positions, and exploring the spaces for men’s involvement in struggles for gender equality (Pease, 1996, 2000).

White ribbon campaign inspired by Montreal Massacre: In 1991 a group of men starts the White Ribbon Campaign as a symbol of men's opposition to male violence against women. Recently, a troubling study found that men assaulted one in seven women, but only one in 250 cases were reported. The campaign's impetus comes from these statistics and the Montreal Massacre. In this CBC Television report, an organizer explains the ribbons symbolize "the idea of men giving up their arms.

Le mythe de la virilité, un piège pour les deux sexes - oct. 2017 de Olivia GAZALÉ - Et si, comme les femmes, les hommes étaient depuis toujours victimes du mythe de la virilité ? De la préhistoire à l'époque contemporaine, une passionnante histoire du féminin et du masculin qui réinterprète de façon originale le thème de la guerre des sexes.
Pour asseoir sa domination sur le sexe féminin, l'homme a, dès les origines de la civilisation, théorisé sa supériorité en construisant le mythe de la virilité. Un discours fondateur qui n'a pas seulement postulé l'infériorité essentielle de la femme, mais aussi celle de l'autre homme (l'étranger, le " sous-homme ", le " pédéraste "...). Historiquement, ce mythe a ainsi légitimé la minoration de la femme et l'oppression de l'homme par l'homme.
Depuis un siècle, ce modèle de la toute-puissance guerrière, politique et sexuelle est en pleine déconstruction, au point que certains esprits nostalgiques déplorent une " crise de la virilité ". Les masculinistes accusent le féminisme d'avoir privé l'homme de sa souveraineté naturelle. Que leur répondre? Que le malaise masculin est, certes, une réalité, massive et douloureuse, mais que l'émancipation des femmes n'en est pas la cause. La virilité est tombée dans son propre piège, un piège que l'homme, en voulant y enfermer la femme, s'est tendu à lui-même.
En faisant du mythe de la supériorité mâle le fondement de l'ordre social, politique, religieux, économique et sexuel, en valorisant la force, le goût du pouvoir, l'appétit de conquête et l'instinct guerrier, il a justifié et organisé l'asservissement des femmes, mais il s'est aussi condamné à réprimer ses émotions, à redouter l'impuissance et à honnir l'effémination, tout en cultivant le goût de la violence et de la mort héroïque. Le devoir de virilité est un fardeau, et " devenir un homme " un processus extrêmement coûteux.
Si la virilité est aujourd'hui un mythe crépusculaire, il ne faut pas s'en alarmer, mais s'en réjouir. Car la réinvention actuelle des masculinités n'est pas seulement un progrès pour la cause des hommes, elle est l'avenir du féminisme

Film - Movie frm Micheal Kimmel :

Guyland: Where Boys Become Men - 2015 - 35' - Created & Written by Michael Kimmel - In this powerful new film based on his bestselling book, sociologist Michael Kimmel maps the troubling social world where boys become men -- a new stage of development he calls "Guyland." Arguing that the traditional adult signposts and cultural signals that once helped boys navigate their way to manhood are no longer clear, Kimmel provides an astonishing glimpse into a world where more and more young men are trying desperately to prove their masculinity to other young men -- with frequently disastrous consequences for young women and other young men.
