that man just opened a door for a lady. he must be a part of the menaissance.
‘men renaissance’: anti-female, ‘post-sensitive’ male movement in america. man is no longer threatened by faulty relationships and is always in control if he ventures into one. the woman in question is now the ‘manizer’, not he the ‘womanizer’!
this alpha-alpha ‘manliness’ of post-feminist america is nothing but — deep in the social texture — a load of old ‘f-nny’! hehe!
menaissance has its roots in the early 80s victim-power of the ‘battered male syndrome’!
there are now men’s studies, men’s rights/ movement, men-lib (men-liberation)… something called ‘guyville’/ guyness/ guyhood! new man/ wild man! iron john/ laddite or ‘ladditism’ in the uk… and these collectively mirror feminism in what is known as ‘masculinism’, or less-frequently, ‘hominism’.
return to a pre-modernist
old-style masculinity, where men present themselves as macho, hanging-
out-with-your-mates, beer-swilling, s-xist chaps. menaissance is a word compound from men and renaissance(of ‘real men’).
– daily mail, 12 jul. 2006: of course, advocates of the menaissance
may argue that we shouldn’t be too concerned about what kind of a
man women want these days. isn’t that, they would say, the way we
arrived at simpering metros-xuals desperate to please their other
halves?

– philadelphia inquirer, 8 apr. 2006: a woman friend tells me
there’s a desperate need for a “menaissance.” many women are weary
of sensitive emo-boys and metros-xuals.
