Title: #MeToo or #MenToo? Expressions of Backlash and Masculinity Politics in the #MeToo Era.
Authors: Maricourt, Clotilde de (AUTHOR), Burrell, Stephen R. (AUTHOR)

Subjects: MeToo movement, Masculinity, Semi-structured interviews, Practical politics
Abstract: Since #MeToo took the Internet by storm in 2017, it has had transnational social and legal ramifications. However, there has been little research on the repercussions of this movement for the ways in which masculinity has been politicized as questions around its meaning and place in gender relations were brought to the forefront of public discussions. Thirteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants from two Western Anglophone men's groups, one embracing and one opposing feminist ideas. Our findings demonstrate a qualitative shift in contemporary expressions of "backlash" and "masculinity politics" in the #MeToo era compared to their initial formulations in the wake of the women's and men's movements of the 1960s to 1980s, shaped by novel tropes and tactics.
