Male Privilege (At Issue) (Library Binding)

Description

---

Male privilege refers to the sociological concept that men are automatically granted certain privileges and advantages in politics, society, and the workplace based entirely on their gender. Feminists and others concerned with perceived gender inequality hope to challenge the preconceived values and notions that enable male privilege and the inherently patriarchal nature of society. The viewpoints in this volume address the definition and history of male privilege, offer differing perspectives on whether it exists and how it may influence society, and propose solutions to help reduce gender inequality.
