Abstract
In the last decades we have witnessed many debates around new masculinities. However, reflections about masculinities and hegemonic masculinity seem to leave the trouble between men and feminism unsolved. Therefore, both academia and social movements demand tools to develop a critical view on this issue. This article deals with these questions based on two points of departure: in one hand, a series of academic and activist presentations in feminist and LGBT environments; in the other hand, an inquiry, conducted between 2012 and 2013 on the discourses around masculinities emerged from anti-sexist men's groups that appeared in Basque Country in the previous years. Privilege, oppression, identity, subjectivity and collective action are some of the matters that amalgam in the reflections this article brings together
