"Ultimately, the definition of male privilege that non-trans woman feminists are working off of is hopelessly ciscentric. Does it make any sense to say that trans women ‘have’ male privilege because we didn’t experience certain aspects of sexism that cis women experience, or did not experience it as intensely, without also saying that cis women ‘have’ male privilege because they don’t experience certain aspects of sexism that we do, or not as intensely? If we benefit from sexism against cis women, then cis women benefit from sexism against us. Cissexual women’s privilege compared to transsexual women isn’t just about being cissexual in a vacuum—their cissexuality also mellows misogyny directed at them. The only way to realistically argue that post-transition trans women have male privilege is to silence our own herstories and hold cissexual lives as the true standard of reality—which is exactly what the accusation of male privilege is intended to do."
