Back in the 80's in the U.S. there was a men's movement spearheaded by Robert Bly
Bly argued in his 1990 book, Iron John: A Book About Men, that society causes men to be disconnected from their feelings, and he knew he could rub people the wrong way. "I do remember people wanting to kill me, but that's not unusual," he said in 2010.

I tried several men's movements at the time but realized I'm more of loner and not a joiner, so the problem was with me, not the men's movements and I've come to accept that about myself.
