Women's studies tend to focus on the celebration of women in the masculine domain. Really, how much of women's studies focus on women's feminine nature (given that the majority of women are naturally feminine)? Conversely, a Men's Studies would have to focus on the celebration of men in the feminine domain. We don't value the feminine domain in this culture. We diminish it every chance we get. Especially the feminist leaders!

This is good, you are asking the right questions. Men's studies is more important than women's studies because feminism has attained all of thier original goals, now they are after all the special rights. While men are committing suicide 4 times as much as women and live 7 years less.

Isis answer will give you a clue as to the right answer. I quote: "It is because men have so dominated everything there really isn't the need for them to get yet another special perk."
We live in an Age of Lies, and the characteristic lie of our times is that the oppressors pretend to be the oppressed. The basic truth about politics and power is this: the group with the privileges is the boss.
It's always that way. When there's a privileged group whose members go about claiming to be your victim, even though the group to which you belong must meanwhile pay for their privileges, then they are lying and profiting by their lies. It's not complicated, really.
A men's studies group might, for example, try to find ways to ensure that fathers have a fair chance at child custody. And presumably judicial fairness would be measured by the percentage of cases in which custody went to the mother, to the father, or was held jointly or in annual alternation by both parents.
And child support would also be examined in a men's studies class, to ensure that both male and female non-custodial parents paid roughly equal percentages of their gross income to the custodial parent as child support.
Further, men's study groups could lobby law makers to require that judges be IGNORANT of which parent in a child custody case was of which gender, to prevent gender bias from influencing the court's decision. (Independent reviews could check the case records for any sneaky hints being passed to the judge.)
Note that I left gender preferences out of all that? Betcha you won't find many feminists doing likewise!
There's lots that men's study groups might do, but there's no significant political will for the doing of them. Every man thinks himself prepared to shoulder the weight of the whole world, and every man finds out too late that the world has crushed him.

Yeah I wish we had a section to ask questions about men in. I had to post one in women's studies (figuring to treat it like gender studies), and was told to post it in singles and dating, even though that was clearly inappropriate.

Women's studies is not study on women. It is an interdisciplinary academic field devoted to topics concerning women, feminism, gender, and politics. It often includes feminist theory, women's history (eg history of women's suffrage) and social history, women's literature, women's health, and the feminist and gender studies-influenced practice of most of the humanities and social sciences.

adult adult males could take a peek in many situations on the girls persons's learn.Their section could be nagging approximately women persons"WHAT do women persons %?!!" & approximately activities. women persons learn would be crammed "why did he pass away me!!!" & " am I being over dramatic" form of question with a regularly used "what footwear do you prefer" question. Yea stereotypes yet that's what I imagined.

Judging by the answers, women do not want EQUALITY they want more rights than men(and they already have more rights than men).

The entire study of human history is dominated by men and their antics. What more do you want?
