So in the past 2 days, we've seen the news that the proposal to include women in the American Selective Service system has been scrapped. Notably, this effort mostly came from Republicans.

This helps to dispel the myth that the mens rights movement is a right wing movement- it is not. There is no party, liberal nor conservative, that is a pro MRA party. I believe this is a matter we should take into our own hands.

I'd like to put forward the idea to establish a pro-MRA political party in the United States to promote dialogue and action towards issues affecting men and boys.

These are the federal requirements to start a party recognized by the FEC, I don't believe them to be too difficult.

It's easy to imagine lots of mainstream media coverage were such a party to be established under the FEC. Such a party would generate attention towards public policies that are discriminatory to men and boys, and draw national attention to them. We could educate the populace on the data of male disparities that are largely obscure. We could comb through major bills/provisions and highlight any anti-male or discriminatory provision or passage. Things like that are often snuck into those 1,200 page bills that no one actually sits down and reads.

We could also hold public events and release publications on all the common male issues. I imagine major networks would cover such events and publications.

Ideally, we can raise viable candidates who could run for major public office- anything from city council to state representative to Congress.

This is obviously an idea in it's incunabula, so I think it's very interesting to think about. Ideas for names:

Men's Movement Party (MMP)

Men's Union (MU)

Male Issues Party (MIP)
