male privilige

(my odds of being hired for a job, when competing against female applicants, are probably skewed in my favor. the more prestigigious the job, the larger the odds are skewed) i decidedly disagree with this notion presented us such. we are presently living in an ever changing culture where similar views are becoming a distant thought. take for instance the unemployment numbers: there is a disparity in the number of jobs held by men versus those held by women suggesting ,otherwise, an upward trend pointing to women benefiting from this recession,more-over, the salary gap between man and women has been dwindling. women are climbing up the political ladder better than they ever had imagened.

  1. This a vaild point; the gap between men and women in the work place is decreasing. But is this, as you suggest in your post, only a phenomenon of the recession?
