...Mr. Greenberg teaches in Seattle and writes for Everyday Feminism. In an article published yesterday, titled “Looking for Proof of Male Privilege in Your Daily Life? Here Are 7 Undeniable Examples,” he tackles the concept of “male privilege.”
At the very beginning of the article, Mr. Greenberg includes a warning, writing, “This article is written from a White, cisgender, straight male’s perspective – in other words, from my perspective. Throughout, I discuss primarily experiences and research involving cisgender men and women, but I must acknowledge the limitations of such a perspective.”
Greenberg then told a short story that he said showed seven examples of male privilege, one which women aren’t able to do. This is what he wrote: “Thirty minutes after waking up, I zipped to the school at which I teach and experienced a damn fine day of teaching. Upon my return home, I headed out for a run on an unseasonably warm March afternoon. After a family dinner and tagging out of the bedtime routine for our four-year-old, I walked to a coffee shop, where I finally started this article, an achievement I rewarded with a short dose of Netflix.”
According to Greenberg, this story is a “staggering display of male privilege.”
...Third, he writes, “I Have the Privilege of Peeing Standing Up.” He begins this section by writing, “Between my two-hour classes, I needed to pee – an urge, I’m told by female colleagues, that a penis is able to keep at bay longer (yet another privilege, though physiological and cisgender-specific, to add to the list).”
He continues, “An open urinal or stall was waiting for me, as always. Such availability is not the norm for many women’s bathrooms… Pee privilege also extends to the outdoors, as it’s not uncommon to see men urinating in public.”

Our country must be finished. Reading Nick Gage’s “Eleni” - about the communist takeover of Greece and surely it could happen here...and soon.
These idiots can Go-F themselves!
“An open urinal or stall was waiting for me, as always. Such availability is not the norm for many women’s bathrooms…”
Cissyboy needs to go to a football game or a hockey game, where he would find that women like me do have the pee privilege of shorter lines. But I know that football or hockey would be WAAAAY too much testosterone for him to handle.
rofl the jokes on this particular post are great :)
There was a freeper here who admitted he did that - said his wife made him. I forget who it was - I hope he’s left this site.
I’m sure he faithfully watches “Glee” as well.
Sorry, if you have BPH, peeing sitting down doesn’t work well. Is that male privilege?
I don’t understand why this asshat thinks its male “privilege”.
If a woman wants to pee standing up, nothing stops her.
“This article is written from a White, cisgender, straight male’s perspective – in other words, from my perspective. Throughout, I discuss primarily experiences and research involving cisgender men and women, but I must acknowledge the limitations of such a perspective.”
Tendentious.
Here’s another one he didn’t think of. When we are winter camping, I can get up in the middle of the night and pee in an (empty) liter bottle. My wife can’t.
That, my friends, is true privilege.
he’s alleging that women have p. envy.
Privilege anything/everything ,the New liberal pile of Obama droppings

Mr????
This dude is seriously $*@#$^& in the head.
I think that it is time to assemble a catalog of evidence that collectivists are mentally stuck at age 9.
This will be the first entry.
Obviously, he needs to watch more network tv so that he can see males portrayed as helpless dolts who need female supervision.
This has gone from cutesy social game to oppressive guilt-mongering, and the reason is that we let people get away with it.
