  1. I think you mean masculist.

    The masculist aim to transcend immanence is challenged by the feminists.

    Masculism (also referred to as masculinism) consists of social theories, political movements, and moral philosophies primarily based on the experiences of men. Although masculism provides a general critique of social relations, many of its active proponents also seek to analyze gender inequality and promote men's rights, interests, and issues.

    RE:emmanence, there is no such word. Did you mean immanence?

    immanence - the state of being within or not going beyond a given domain

    FYI:

    History of masculism

    The first secular response to feminism came from Ernest Belfort Bax, a socialist theoretician in the height of socialism at the beginning of the 20th century, and an associate of Karl Marx. Bax wrote The Fraud of Feminism in 1913, which was in essence the first masculist text, with chapter titles The Anti-Man Crusade, Always The 'Injured Innocent', and The 'Chivalry' Fake. Another early text which covers topics still in current circulation, was H.L. Mencken's post-WWI book In Defense of Women.

    Modern masculism has evolved as a response to changing women's roles. The feminist advocacy for professional women led to a similar advocacy for fathers. For example, following the "working woman" TV programs of the 1970s (such as The Mary Tyler Moore Show) came numerous "single father" shows (such as Diff'rent Strokes and Silver Spoons), as well as the child-custody themed motion picture Kramer vs. Kramer.

    Masculism, however, is not merely a response to feminism. There are many issues, such as military conscription and fatherhood, that are regarded by proponents as concerns for men in their own right.

    Warren Farrell is probably the most prominent author using the term "masculist" today.


  2. "Masculinist"?

    There is no such word such as MASCULINIST.

    You can say:

    1. "The men's aim to transcend imminence  is challenged by the feminists."

    Additional Details:

    There is no such word such as emmanence, I think you are pertaining to "imminence."

  3. According to encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com,:  "Masculism (also referred to as masculinism)...." Therefore, it would seem to be correct.  

    However, I think there's another important point to be made.  The words you use are so obscure, that most people will not understand what you are saying.  Thus, you will have failed to communicate...communication being the primary objective of any language.

    Unless to use these words was part of the assignment, I would re-write this completely using more accessible words.

  4. Since the word does not exist, I would think it is not ok here or anywhere else.
