Why is this Mens Rights Group run by Women?

The_Beedle writes "So I'm reading through the local livejournal community for my city and come across an open invitation to attend a talk held by both a Womens Group and a Mens Group. September Feminist Culture Club Meeting So who the heck is NOMAS? Why haven't we heard about them before?

After taking a look at their website, they appear to be composed entirely of Womens Studies graduates, with a gay man and a hetero male apologist thrown in for good measure. Their stated goals are :

1. Pro-Feminist
2. Gay-Affirmative
3. Anti-Racist
4. Dedicated to Enhancing Men's Lives

#2 and #3 are all well and good. Why is #1 there at all, and why do men come in 4th place in an organization that sounds like it should be pro-Men?"
