Hi hello yes I'm here.

I'm also very aware that I am one data point and do not represent all (or most) transmascs and just because I have access to male privilege the vast majority of the time it doesn't mean all (or most) transmascs have access to male privilege.

And is this transmasc with male privilege in the room with us?

#I don't have an identical male privilege to a cis man. But I'd still argue the privilege I do personally have is a form of male privilege #it's like how black men don't have the same kind of male privilege as white men. And how gay men don't have the same kind of male privilege #as straight men. That doesn't mean black and queer men don't have some kind of male privilege #the main difference is that male privilege isn't a universal thing for trans men due to different levels of passing privilege differences in #gender identity and expression differences in legal recognition and protections by country and a whole heap of other reasons #some transmascs will never have access to ANY form of male privilege. Others may only have some slight social privilege. And a handful may #gain access to a form of male privilege almost as systemic and widespread as the kind cis men have access to #there's no universal experience
