Article here. Excerpt:

'Stony Brook University in Long Island, New York, will soon become the first college in the nation to offer a master’s degree in the emerging field of “Masculinities.”

The Master’s Program in Masculinities will be a 30-credit online program offered through the school’s Center for the Study of Men and Masculinities, which aims to “disseminate research that redefines gender relations to foster greater social justice.”

The center counts feminist icons such as Gloria Steinem, Eve Ensler, and Jane Fonda among its Board of Directors, and it is led by Michael Kimmel, a feminist academic who most recently wrote a book on “angry white men” suffering from “aggrieved entitlement.”
...
If Kimmel’s proposal is approved, it will become the first master’s degree in “Masculinities” ever to be offered.'

At this point I am undoubtedly as predictable to MANN regulars when faced with such news as the proberbial Old Faithful geyser but just in case you want it, here goes:

This is like the seniormost officials of the Nazi party creating a new college degree entitled "Jewish Studies"

Pardon me whilst I vomit into the nearest trash can.
