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.

Nod. I mean, you've read BI, I think MP was ascribed to me by others, and while that had some advantages, it doesn't really compensate for heightened misogyny now...

I guess I noticed just how much the way I was treated changed, the frequency of sexual harassment, the frequency of getting shut down in conversations and the power of the statement 'you're talking too much' rising... so, I feel like being treated as such affected my life, but it's def. passing-as-male priv, not actual male priv...
