"Off Our Backs" is the second pre-album-release single from MEN's debut album Talk About Body. It was released on November 9, 2010,[2] available on 7" vinyl, 12" vinyl and CD single/EP. The track had previously been released on June 25, 2009 by "MEN MAKE MUSIC" (self-released) on a digital EP called "Limited Edition Demo" that included four tracks: the main single, two more songs - Credit Card Babies and Simultaneously - that would also later appear on Talk About Body, and the Jeppe's Money is a Major Issue Remix.
The title of the song is a nod to the feminist magazine of the same name "off our backs". The song's video features a tug-o-war between men and women with close-ups of sexually-implicit movements between members of the same sex.
