A transman on "male privilege"

"Most transmen will laugh, some quite loudly, at the notion that we transition in order to achieve male privilege. I’ve been transitioned for many years and still don’t know what that is. I’ve looked around, but the concept is as elusive as the winning lottery ticket that I’m sure I purchased but now can’t find anywhere. Transmen transition because of a gender incongruity, and if male privilege comes with it, it’s only a side effect. But most of us will attest to the fact that there isn’t much male privilege out there to be had."
