That, and cognitive dissonance. They *also* have a hard time finding a job and their brains simply cannot accept that they have a hard time getting a job *despite* being privileged. Ergo, they think others (women) must have an easier time. Stupid, but that's how brains work.

That's a great explanation! How can I put it into simple words to explain it to male colleagues who think women are taking their jobs. One even told me that in some uni in NL opted for hiring only female postdocs to compensate the gender imbalance and it's unfair

Like, how do you explain white male privilege? (Like for real, because people think it doesn't exist)

This might not be what you want to read, but you probably need to drop these people from your social life. Emotional and intellectual labour, e.g., you explaining to men what sexism and privilege is is a part of the sexism directed at you by the system.pic.twitter.com/yrRJOUrfYJ
