Story here. Excerpt:

'A professor from Virginia will spend the upcoming academic year teaching courses on gender at the Air Force Academy to combat sexual assaults.
...
Neither course is required of students. But so many have registered for the lone section of "Men and Masculinity" that the academy is considering adding another, said Col. Gary Packard, head of the academy's Department of Behavioral Sciences and Leadership.
...
"There's a lot of theory in the first part" of the class, he said. "The second part includes discussion of men's issues: work, mental health, physical health, relationships, sexuality, violence, and contemporary topics like the prison problem, pornography and prostitution."
As part of their coursework, Kilmartin will assign his students to journal about gender stereotypes they observe in their everyday lives.'

I did some research and Christopher Kilmartin is the professor the Air Force has hired to teach the course.

"Dr. Kilmartin wrote “Violence Is a Men’s issue” in The Good Men Project magazine (2010) and “Let’s not wink at ‘rape lite’ – or blame the victim” in The Free Lance-Star (2010)."

So then it looks to just be another shame men into compliance and increased disposability. Never mind the rampent sexual assault and false allegations against men, we need to protect the womynz with more shame and blame.
