The entire “male privilege” thing is bs. Both genders have obstacles of their own, but it’s arguable that men have more obstacles. It doesn’t matter tho. What do you expect to happen? No obstacles with being a man or a woman?

no male privilege definitely exists. you have to think abt things in the context of the whole world. not just in the US

yall! the gender wage gap, the percentage of women who get sexually assaulted or experience violence often by male perpetrators, the expectation that women serve their husbands rather than pursue their own careers, and studies have shown that people are more likely to take men seriously, in the workplace for exampe. male privilege means that men dont have to deal with any of this, and they get taken seriously more often. this is not something that you can argue against. it exists

Female privilege exists too. Both genders have advantages and disadvantages. Don’t say you think women don’t have their own form privilege.

i didn't say they didn't but as for women the "privilege" they experience come at rhe expense of a patriarchal society. I wouldn't even classify it as privilege. An example I would be how it's easier for women to get jobs in certain fields like teaching but women dominated fields pay less. Not to mention most women only experience "privilege" if they are conventionally attractive. The difference between the two are very important

There are a lot of people who believe if you have male privilege then your life isn’t hard.

It’s also easier for women to get jobs in male dominated fields like STEM due to the large number of programs that are built for them. In fact the largest beneficiaries of affirmative action and DEI initiatives have been women, not minorities. Those would classify as privileges. There aren’t nation wide pushes for more male teachers or male nurses or more men in human resources despite them desperately being needed and there being a large stigma against them.

2/2 and repeated with a metaphorical hammer as if it was a very important concept to keep in the heads of the masses to hypnotize them into being divisive against one another. The only thing I’ve found that grants people “privilege” is generational wealth, and that is quickly going away because people with generational wealth appear to have bred common sense out of their bloodlines.

What female privilege though ? When I think of how men have it easier I mean your life isn’t in as much danger when you walk alone at night. O feel like if you mean women get doors held open for them or meals paid that’s not really privilege compared to how our safety is constantly in danger because we are women and men’s isn’t based on them being men

Men are expected to go to war. As a man who’s gone to war, I will confirm, it is dangerous.

Actually men are more likely to be physically assaulted by a stranger than women. You are statistically less likely to be attacked walking alone at night than we are.

Also I reckon the reason yall are in as much danger as you are, is humans, in their pride and hubris, made laws contrary to the laws that stabilized civilization. Ex. The punishment for rape/murder was death under both common law and ancient abrahamic law. We (and by we I mean humans in recent decades) removed that death penalty for rape/murder. The rapists and murderers multiplied since we let them live, so… we are going to have to go back to the death penalty for rape/murder.
