this is the same rhetoric whites use to argue against white privilege. "if there's a such thing as white privilege, then why am I up to my knees in debt?"

this stuff is funny...I used to lurk this black women's forum 
and they had this one thread about light skin privilege....them light skinned black women was like 
but when you bring up black male privilege them same hoes will be like 
....all this shyt is getting over the top and it's definitely not progressive...it just seems like everyone wants to attack another group and feel some false sense of dominance...it's very cult like when you look at it all....if you disagree with them they get mad and attack...doesn't sound too progressive to me 
.....soon this stuff will get played out tho so I'm just sitting back and watching the show

You are doing 360 around my question without answering it. We also have the highest incarceration rate, we are the primary target for police brutality, and we have one of the lowest graduation rate in this nation. Is that what you called privilege ?

In spite of all of those things, Black men still have male privilege. If you disagree, that's fine, I don't expect people to acknowledge their privileges.

This type of discussion, particularly around such a subject, will never be productive on this forum

White people win. Laughable that some of you think single moms and sons of single moms are the "real enemy". Sounds like what an white supremacist agent would say to deflect black men from the actual oppressor. They will never be a patriarchal society if some of you continue to have contempt for black women and continue to be dismissive of their struggle. But then again this in the Internet, I don't expect our future leaders to spend 1,000s of posts engage in gender wars. A real one would would be too busy being productive- mass organizing, not alienating. Just my 2 cents
