The Male Privilege Checklist
1. My odds of being hired for a job, when competing against female applicants,
are probably skewed in my favor. The more prestigious the job, the larger
the odds are skewed.
3. If I am never promoted, it’s not because of my sex.
4. If I fail in my job or career, I can feel sure this won’t be seen as a
black mark against my entire sex’s capabilities.
5. The odds of my encountering sexual harassment on the job are so low as to
be negligible.
6. If I do the same task as a woman, and if the measurement is at all
subjective, chances are people will think I did a better job.
7. If I’m a teen or adult, and if I can stay out of prison, my odds of being
raped are so low as to be negligible.
9. If I choose not to have children, my masculinity will not be called into
question.
…
40. Magazines, billboards, television, movies, pornography, and virtually all
of media is filled with images of scantily-clad women intended to appeal
to me sexually. Such images of men exist, but are much rarer.
41. I am not expected to spend my entire life 20-40 pounds underweight.
42. If I am heterosexual, it’s incredibly unlikely that I’ll ever be beaten up
by a spouse or lover.
43. I have the privilege of being unaware of my male privilege.
