MasculinityU is a new national initiative geared toward engaging young men in redefining masculinity and encouraging them in taking an equal role in ending gender violence. Our Vision: To create an environment free from all type of abusive behavior and violence. 'What does it mean to be a man? In today's culture it means demeaning women. It means breaking down our brothers instead of building them up. It means status symbols: cars owned, women slept with, money in the bank. It means showing no weakness, protecting your pride, and "manning up" when times get hard. It means saying "no homo" after every compliment, lest people think you're gay. It means calling men who are in touch with their emotional side "bâ€”hes" or "p*$$**s". It means never stepping out of the box society made for us and shoving people back in if they do anything to question societal norms. It means we have a problem.' 'MasculinityU isn't the end-all, be-all solution. We don't even seek to be the destination. Rather we hope to guide a generation of men as they start to rethink masculinity and make their own informed decisions. We hope to challenge our brothers to think about the meaning behind their words and the motivations behind their actions.'
