UW

Six-Week University Program Will 'Help' Men Not Act Like Men
Excerpt: The University of Wisconsin-Madison is starting its six-week "Men's Project," a program designed to brainwash young men to not act like men because men are awful: “The program operates on a transformative model of social justice allyship,” explains a news release from UW-Madison. “First, facilitators ask students to consider how the students’ opinions about masculinity affect their own perceptions every day. Second, they consider how those opinions affect the people around them.” One goal of the project, said Sam Johnson, a violence prevention specialist at the University Health Services, is to “prevent future violence” by analyzing “unhealthy interactions” caused by traditional perceptions of masculinity and their role in gender-based violence, alcohol, and relationships.
