Do you ever feel like you have, or do you reflect on having, "normal gender" privilege?

yes I do, but it is more often than not situational. I notice it far more here in Japan where women are more oppressed than back home in the states. I totally recognize that I get away with a lot of things because I am a foreigner whereas if I was a Japanese woman I would never get away with the things that I have gotten away with.

I have felt the same way in America but only slightly. Though things are by no means equal there, the balance I think is far better. Normally I just see myself as a person rather than a gender.
