Yeah- there was a lot of privilege in having the crap beaten out of me every day from 11-15 in an all male school for being different/poofy/weird/small/bright (strike those which don't apply- I make no apologies for the second usage-it was the favoured insult at the time among those 'rugger buggers' whose testosterone slopped out of their ears).
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.
