Barenaked Ladies Are Men (sometimes abbreviated BLAMen or Are Men) is the eleventh full-length album by Barenaked Ladies, and the second half of the 29-song session that bore the album Barenaked Ladies Are Me. The two albums (or at least their material) were released together under the Are Me title in several "deluxe" release methods before Are Men received its own proper official release in February 2007. The album's artwork was created by Team Macho who also did similar artwork for the Are Me releases. The title is an extension of the Are Me title. During touring for the two albums, a pre-show video showed an unidentified hand adding various other extensions to the Barenaked Ladies Are Me title.

The formal release of the album is an Enhanced CD, and contains software and individual tracks that allow the owner to remix three of the band's songs. An advanced release of the album, exclusive to Canadian Starbucks, was released on October 3, 2006, with a slightly different tracklist, and without the Enhanced CD feature.

Upon its release, Barenaked Ladies Are Men reached #102 in the US and #39 in the band's native Canada.
