"Move over, abortion — men’s issues are the new taboo topics on campus"

'But new to the Campus Freedom Index this year, however, is the topic of men’s issues awareness — a subject that wets the felt-tip markers of the perpetually outraged upon mere mention. The movement is a relatively recent phenomenon on Canadian campuses, where men’s rights speakers and groups are usually met with protests, attempts at censorship and placards about how “Men’s Rights is Misogyny.” In other words: pure failure fodder for the Campus Freedom Index.

The examples are well chronicled. At the University of Toronto, last November, protesters tried to shut down a speech by Warren Farrell, author of The Myth of Male Power and other books on men’s and women’s issues. Farrell was able to deliver his address despite the rally, though campus security and Toronto Police were called to the scene. The University of Toronto Student Union later issued a release expressing its disdain for “hate speech,” and denied club certification to the “Men’s Issues Awareness Society” the following month for its alleged violation of the Ontario Human Rights Code.'
