Read what I linked, and read my previous posts. I already outlined how.
No you outlined how sexism exists. Not how that sexism equates to "black males maintaining privilege.
Of course not all sexism leads to benefits for men. I never said that. Secondly, what grants privilege is a power structure. In Black communities, the vast majority of powerholders at the higher levels of the institutions are men. That's not something you can dispute. That's where the power structure comes from. It's a very simple point.
Just because black man are most likely heads of the church does not mean that black men are maintaing privilege.
If men are leading the church yet women have the most voting power in the church, then who's maintaining that leadership?
I already gave numerous examples. I can only keep referring you back to those and to the research, which contains even more examples.
You have examples of sexism. That's not what I asked for.
Yes, I did say that, and it's true. As for men and women having "different tendencies," you'll have to elaborate. Right now it sounds like you just pulled that out of your ass because there's no research or logic behind it. Two people with the same experience working the same job with the same title for the same hours should get paid the same. There are no "different tendencies" that can change that.
Without even going into any of the other differences, women have a tendency to get pregnant and leave their jobs. Should that warrant them less money?
And by your logic that wouldn't be a "privilege" for men right?
(Before I get called a misogynist I don't think women should get paid less, but according to @
The Real logic it's logical due to different behavior)
Do you know what privilege is? Do you understand how I defined it? You can't just redefine it on your own whim and then claim that I'm not meeting its standard- that's called moving the goalposts. I already defined it earlier. Sexism is a general category, of which privilege for men, defined as distinct social advantages when all else is equal, is one of the results.
1.
a. A special advantage, immunity, permission, right, or benefit granted to or enjoyed by an individual, class, or caste. See Synonyms at
right.
b. Such an advantage, immunity, or right held as a prerogative of status or rank, and exercised to the exclusion or detriment of others.
2. The principle of granting and maintaining a special right or immunity: a society based on privilege.
You have yet to explain how black men are actively maintaining this. You've show how they get it in some cases, but not how black men are maintaining it at the expense of black women.
Maybe, in some cases. You'd have to name some that involve actual female power, though. Black women very little enforcement power since they don't hold many prominent positions of power in the Black community, just like Black people in general do in the larger white society.
what black male power exist outside of the church and politics which women overwhelmingly are more involved in?
If you need power to maintain privilege then black men are at the bottom of the totem pole.
The research is proof of Black men enforcing inequality with respect to women in Black communities. That's what maintains privilege.
The research shows that sexism exists. You are tying to say that sexism equates to black men "maintaining privilege" yet you have yet to prove it.
