Reply To: Would you willingly give up your male priveleges to live as a woman?

[Angela Booth]

I understand the term ‘Male privilege’ but in my life I cannot say that I have had any benefit. The school I went to seemed to have a progressive attitude in that boys did home economics and even needlework! There were as many girls as boys in sciences and in fact every class. In my worklife I was never paid more than the girls and worked in environs that had equal opportunities and pay. So to live as I do today is a natural progression and sometimes I feel that as a woman I have more privilege than before. The biggest is htat I am accepted into their world.
