Your link text says "Men's advocacy ground"; I think you meant "group"?
Even the group's name is a *facepalm*. Why, yes, men kind of are "in power" already; hadn't they noticed the gender breakdowns of the Senate, the House, and the C-level executives of the largest N companies or the Fortune N, for any value of N you want to pick?
There are a few issues where men are lagging behind women*, but "power" is certainly not one of them. The undertones I get from this group's name are very much "We're in power, and we damned well want to maintain that power."
* Obviously, those few don't compare to the huge number of ways in which women still get the short end of the stick.
