I don't really care what happens if we have mens issue debate. in the same way that I, you, the OP and anyone else not involved in the womens event shouldn't really care what happens at it. too many people like yourself, and I don't mean that to be offensive, being concerned about something that doesn't actually concern them.
Gender equality debate

So gender equality doesn’t concern men ?

Ah... you mean women, United losing the final, and the on-hold music on BT's Customer Service line?

not just BT
the event doesn't concern you so why be concerned about it. I didn't mention gender equality not concerning men.
if one particular group of anything (men, women, donkeys or hairy faced rabbits) want to have a little get together and bemoan, bitch, cry or pat each others back let them have at it. why does their little get together have to bother anyone outside of their own little group?

Some men's issues for those who haven't heard this stuff before:
- Circumcision (it's basically FGM for men)
- Bias in family court (she takes your kids and your stuff)
- Bias in prison sentences (men serve more time for the same crime)
- Domestic violence (women get away with hitting men, men don't speak up)
- Suicide (much higher suicide rate among men)
- Military conscription (when it comes down to it, men do the jobs that result in death)
what?! where have I said men don't have issues worth discussing, having an event for??
what I am saying, repeatedly, is why be concerned over an event that doesn't concern you. why are you concerned about an event that is for women to discuss something they feel concerns them.
damn, have I used the word 'concerned' enough
?!

I'm offended, I will be contacting moderation shortly regarding this matter.
you might want to remove that post - quite a bit of swearing round the 45 second mark. good video though showing a load of folk being concerned about something that doesn't really need to concern them (I need a new word!)
and that has what to do with the OP? does this event mean that men don't have or aren't allowed issues? apologies if I've missed something but I don't see the relationship between your highlighting of mens issues and the OP.

Because someone has to represent men's issues. The BBC isn't going to do it.
Feminism isn't "women's issues". It's "women taking power from men".
BBC is feminist. About half their "news" isn't news, it's feminism.

Any guesses as to how many of these women will have brightly coloured hair, are dressed like hobos and look like personal hygiene is an alien concept?
Indeed, another couple to throw in the ring:-
Education - educational techniques are now largely preferrentially geared towards girls over boys
Health Spending:- Health spending and particularly research into cancer are massively biased towards women’s issues.
The worst thing about? The reason for many of the above is that men just grin and bare it (suicide and mental health issues particular) and now that gender equality is politicised the swing will likely be even more towards women because we will lose the debate simply by not having it in the first place.
Who's stopping you?
