Helen was saying that Ampersand posted the non-trans privilege checklist and I said he posted the male privilege checklist. We weren’t saying he wrote either the non-trans privilege or cisgender privilege checklists.

Sorry about the confusion.

This was *not* written by Ampersand, it was written by Hazel/Cedar Troost. (me).

Oh, yeah. That thread is exactly why I wrote

Also, you might feel that you do not have some of these privileges, and that’s fine. There’s a lot of overlap in privilege and lack thereof among various minorities. The thing is that not all of these things are true for you, but they are true for trans people.

at the start of my post, but I was too lazy to dig up the link.

Thanks much. :) I’ll edit to include those links when I’m not halfway distracted.

Oh, thank you much. That was written by Ampersand - the same guy who wrote the “How to not be insane when you’re called a racist” article that I borrowed from to make my own version. He is good with this stuff.

Ooh I do like a little list!

Somewhere out n the intermawebs I’m sure I’ve seen a compilation list of lists but until I can find it, here’s a link to the Male Privilege Checklist…
