Can anyone suggest a good male privilege checklist?

I don't mean the one at Alas, A Blog... but an actually comprehensive one that's at least as good as Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack.

It's not even specifically that stuff, although that's a part of it. I mean, a lot of male privilege is stuff like how there's a lot of positive male role models in the media who get to be more than "love interest" and that men aren't subjected to the same pressures to conform to beauty standards as women - as if trans women were somehow really cis boys who absorbed that just like the actual cis boys.

And yeah, pretty much all of those applied to me.
