Just research facts and tell him the facts

"Check your privilege" is a perfect example of an argumentum ad hominem.

Show them rape in statistics in Canada and then compare them to statistics from a Muslim country or a third world country. Or show them male rape statistics

Privilege is not having to apologize for your existence...

I hate that no one acknowledges that males in prison make up the highest rape statistic in the world.

I am a man, and as long as there is a portion of men who think it's okay to coerce women into over drinking in an effort to have sex while she's blacked out or can't obviously consent then there is rape culture in Canada. Its common at public high schools for seniors to invite freshmen girls to parties, pressure them to overdrink, then pick the hottest or "easiest" one to try to have sex with. If she can still say no and rejects him then typically the guy just moves to his next pick until he finally has sex. That is rape culture and that does happen in Canada.

In the context of rape culture, as a man you're less likely to be raped in everday life and as a white person you're less likely to be put in prison where most male rape happens. So being white and a man both shield you from experiencing rape and that's why you are privileged.

Maybe that' uncomfortable for you because you want to keep putting your dick in everybody? :)
