A masculinity summit in Mexico's Jalisco state, among the most violent for women, is set to proceed despite public funding backlash. The event, "Fearless Masculinity," reportedly approved 400,000 pesos (around $23,170) as a subsidy for speakers' fees, lodging and advertising. Local government entities, whose logos were initially featured on the event's sponsor list, later said they were not funding the event. Mexico is a secular state and its constitution restricts sponsorship of religious events. The three-day event bills itself as Latin America's largest masculinity congress. Speakers include controversial speakers such as writer Jordan Peterson and Mexican actor Eduardo Verastegui.
