We do live in a strange culture where TV commercials now, first Nike then this, cause such conversations but it's true as well that there are useful and even important viewpoints presented. I'll throw a few links up, the second is the Rebel Wisdom discussion. David Fuller was a journalist for a major news channel in the UK, became a men's issues counselor, and does his best to keep to the sane center on both men's issues and fair interaction between the sexes. The first link is to an article he mentioned in the video written by Fernando Desouches which outlines some of the issues he saw, ie. that it overshot the problem and landed at the wrong place on the other side of it.
