Some bitesized stuff that's good to begin with:

Michael Crichton: "Men's Hearts"
Roy Baumeister: "Is there anything good about men?"

You may fight this video concise and interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8k4qRt7-SQ&t=289s

Otherwise, it can be difficult to find concise overviews of the movement. At least, I find them difficult to locate. If you have any questions, we'd be happy to answer. The men's rights page on wikipedia is an OK start, although it's shocking that there is not a wikipedia page for the prison sentencing gap.

Also, have you watched the extended preview of Cassie Jaye's The Red Pill?

Search for GirlWritesWhat videos on youtube maybe. Try reading "The Myth of Male Power". Cathy Young articles maybe. Read the subreddit. lots of places to go and you can ask questions of anyone.

Honestly it's the feminism side that will be difficult if you want it from actual feminists that is. They are going to despise you because you'll come off as a skeptic or critic. Especially if you are male. Feminists have almost no apologists (ie people who take the time to explain their position and argue their case). You're either with them or you're an asshole. You'll probably just get banned if you go on their boards.

People talk about this Futrelle guy at www.wehuntedthemammoth.com as the main apologist they have these days but I think the guy is an idiot and a bigot (he even says men can't be raped). While he does represent the movement he's not a good public face.

The best feminist apologist I've seen in 30 years is this guy (you might have seen some of his cartoons):
