Male privilege in gaming & in RL

[jack_ryder]

Very good post (that's only unfortunate aspect is people seem to take it more seriously as it's from a man.)

And whilst you're on lj - i_ate_my_crusts has a disturbing post on how male privilege manifests in real life.

I wonder what would happen if women did this? It would be just as abhorrent, but would men put up with this sort fo treatment?

...I have this argument constantly.
It's nice to hear it coming from someone not me.

I like to point out to these people who think that women somehow invite unwanted touch by [insert dickwad excuse here] that if these creeps tried it on them they would pitch a homophobic fit, and not start thinking of what behaviour/choice of clothing caused the creeper to think that kind of thing was OK.
