"Männer" (German: men) is a 1984 song by German singer Herbert Grönemeyer, released as the first single from the album 4630 Bochum.

The 'Männer' single release is still one of the most successful titles of Grönemeyer. German youth magazine Bravo described the song as "catchy male harassment"^[citation needed]. German magazine Der Spiegel described the song as "half satire, half eulogy, partly Men's Lib, partly Chauvi Restoration".[1]
