The Myth of Female Privilege

Here is a great article from Everyday Feminism on the myths of female privilege.

As the author points out, just because something is a disadvantage of being male, doesn't mean that it is automatically a privilege of being female. In fact, the disadvantages males experience come from the same patriarchal forces that give them privilege. And in fact, many of the disadvantages men experience are the result of the narrow constraints of masculinity.
