The relevance of International Men’s Day

Abstract

Since the 1960s there have been appeals and efforts to establish a special day for men. International Men’s Day has moved from the fringe to the mainstream of the men’s rights movement, and it must continue its meaningful and powerful message which has positively impacted the lives of millions of boys and men. In the past, IMD has largely projected a serious, no-nonsense approach as serious problems plaguing our society were addressed.  In the future, IMD will continue being serious and uncompromising but this movement must also be seen as exciting and interesting to reach the younger generation and those young at heart.

Keywords: boys, international men’s day, males, men
