i'd rather not make this a topic about whether men are raped/assaulted/harassed or not (they certainly are, and at nontrivial rates) but the largest source of male victimization is one that is largely separated from modern society (prisons) and tangential to the discussion of whether the typical man in society is in a position where he is relatively shielded from being a victim of sexual violence compared to the typical woman. it's also tangential to the much more important and illustrative point that these men are in a position to reduce womens' victimization simply by being more present and vigilant in situations that a smaller subset of toxic men take advantage of. that this is analogous to what white people can do for minorities--simply be more vigilant and speak up when they see something they know is wrong--was the point of the post. privilege is a tool, it can simply be used as comfort by not having to deal with a shitty thing, or it can be used as a tool to reduce that shitty thing (which doesn't really reduce comfort, aside from having the occasional uncomfortable conversation). there are toxic women who take advantage of men too, of course. and women could be leaning in and helping their male friends not be taken advantage of by those women in ways their male peers really couldn't. which is, again, tangential to the point since i was framing the idea specifically for white women who aren't sure they agree with the idea of white privilege. --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. |

i think one of the easiest ways for white women to relate to the idea is in turning to the issue of women needing men to help them deal with harassment by other, toxic men fundamentally harassment/assault of women happens behind the backs of men. i've almost never seen a guy be a shit to a woman when i was directly interacting with her. it happens the second we turn our backs. when men recognize their privilege (to not be victims of sexual assault or sexual harassment) and make that behavior unacceptable by increasing their vigilance and standing up to the victimizers, women benefit. it doesn't mean that men would then have to get harassed or feel unsafe. similar thing holds true for whites being more vigilant of those who bully minorities among our own. the main thing being asked of well-meaning people with privilege is "be more vigilant" because most of the shitty stuff done to people is done by a small fraction of the whole of the 'privileged' group. it doesn't mean whites would then get harassed or feel unsafe. --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. |

Wouldn't you say that most of us have advantages over others in some form or fashion? yeah the article recognizes that it emphasizes mostly that while there are advantages and disadvantages to a given status, they are not automatically in balance. i think most white people in america are capable of recognizing the net advantages associated with their ethnicity outweigh the advantages associated with being some other race in america. height is used because it's a really obvious case where being tall, despite having some disadvantages, is pretty much fundamentally more advantageous than being short, although i think that is only really obvious for men. --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. |

Although sex workers argue that this isn't so good either - they still don't want to get caught because it essentially ruins their careers. So they have to stick to dangerous underground environments and so on. That's a big reason why Amnesty International (IIRC it was them) updated their stance on prostitution to "it should be completely legal". this is really interesting. i had thought the associated impact on human trafficking rates was seen as offsetting this. it really should be possible for sale of sex to operate without harming those involved. but it seems like there is no really good system for it. --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. |

this is definitely a possibility, though imo a more likely metric is that trump support was under-predicted because people were not responding honestly on surveys the actual gap between surveys and turnout polling wasn't large, it didn't take a lot of that to swing things. 538 et al did present a path to victory for trump and simply noted it was very unlikely since clinton had a nontrivial lead in each state he needed. a 4% swing in each of those states resulted in the 0.1% victory margins that handed each over. --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. |

it is. iirc in sweden prostitutes are not prosecuted, only their johns/pimps, right? this is designed to make it easier for victimized girls to come forward, but it also means that escorts have less to fear from getting caught practicing their trade. in the US, prostitution is criminalized for the seller as well, so there's some incentive to take the 'bad customer service' hit if there's a perceived risk of arrest --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. |
