The posters have used images of male celebrities including Jude Law (who told Mr. Porter in 2013 that he finds Hollywood’s treatment of women unfair) and Elijah Wood (who told GQ in 2014 that he “absolutely” identifies as a feminist).

…along with this note explaining that “manism” is a movement to reclaim the rights of men, “the victims of a society that tends to forget the struggles of males”.

Manism. This is to remind us of the forgotten gender, who, regardless of the situation, are expected to be such gentlemen. When women talk about being put on the same pedestal as men, simultaneously there is an unsaid expectation of chivalry out of them. It is time we realize that they deserve a break from being all heroic and they too suffer a different level of harassment – out of innocence or otherwise. Gender inequality bugs them as much as it bugs women. So, here’s to all the men, who have been the victims of a society that tends to forget the struggles of males.

The post also includes a video featuring men and women responding to the question “Should women be allowed free entry into nightclubs?”
