[quote=Anonymous]I think he's bristling at the idea of "privilege." There are a lot of guys who are in situations that don't feel privileged -- because they aren't wealthy or handsome or whatever. And it's true that guys can live lives that are brutal where they suffer from grinding poverty and social isolation. To such a person, it's galling to hear a woman talk about male privilege. But, it's still true that they are beneficiaries of such privilege because, for the most part, if you held all the other variables the same but made the man a woman, the woman would have it even harder. The same applies, perhaps even more so, if you hold all the variables the same but switch race. Still, it's all relative. Americans are incredibly privileged when compared to people in other parts of the world. But, it's somewhat rare to hear the people speaking of white, male privilege comparing their own privilege to that of people in less prosperous parts of the world. [/quote]
