Black male privilege at work...
Black men have the ability to define black women's beauty by European standards in terms of skin tone, hair, and body size. In comparison, black women rarely define me by European standards of beauty in terms of skin tone, hair, or body size
Black men do not have to worry about the daily hassles of having my hair conforming to any standard image of beauty the way black women does
Black men come from a tradition of humor that is based largely on insulting and disrespecting women; especially mothers
Black men have the privilege of not knowing what words and concepts like patriarchy, phallocentric, complicity, colluding, and obfuscation mean.
Black men can hear and use language such as bytches and hoes that demean women, with virtually no opposition from men
Black men have the privilege to define black women as having "an attitude" without referencing the range of attitudes that
black women have.
Black men have the privilege of believing that the failure of the black family is due to the black matriarchy.
