Like AI they try to keep it quiet but it comes out every now and then unequivolcally in what they choose for their causes. Thus an organization that started off as being good and noble and a necessary corrective has become a force for feminist indoctrination and promulgation of womens-interests-only-need-be-considered thinking. ACLU wont touch mens issues with a 20 pole but will happily promulgate feminist myths of all kinds. Like AI it champions a number of gender-non-specific causes and then when it finds a feminist one, it goes all-out advertising it and pushing it. They try to avoid getting noticed for their bias but alas they cannot help but be scrutinized.
Still, at least the self flagellant stance in the articles will make for a good discussion eh?

In this case a Woman closed an airport to avoid a vacation with boyfriend. The threat prompted authorities to shut down Germanys third busiest airport on a busy Sunday in September, stranding 64,000 people for hours, while police searched in vain for a bomb. The woman was given a suspended sentence after admitting in court that she called authorities and, in a hoax, made an al Qaeda bomb threat because her parents disapproved of her boyfriend. If a male had done this, you know that he would have been locked up for a long, long time. Again, this story is listed under the unusual article section, damn spin sisters.
Richard Gelles as saying that domestic violence by women is often self defense or retaliation. I think its important that mens rights activists all be aware of why the self defense argument is unfounded. Too many of us go silent when confronted with it due to lack of awareness about the research, and feminists are using this as a very misleading tool. Below is a response I wrote to the anonymous poster on the issue in which I give references to some very good refutations of the self-defense argument. Anyone who is not familiar enough with the self defense argument should look up the sources and be prepared to answer it when the argument comes up, which it will.
Would MenForHire or WhitesForHire stand a chance of going unchallenged?

If you are please join us and take a stand at the Mens Rights Congress this June 18-19 in Washington DC. If these issues are important to you please drop what you are doing and join us. Our goal is to gather a sizable number of men and women to make a strong statement that our issues deserve to be addressed. If you are planning to come, as many of you are, please sign up now. In the event that we dont get a good turnout we will likely cancel the event so please sign up now. All too often mens events such as this are under-attended and we are determined not to let that happen for this event. With political correctness putting an ever-increasing portion of the population off limits for humorous situations, advertisers are increasingly casting straight males as folks who cant cook, drive or watch the kids without making a mess of it.
