The article lays out a good synopsis of why women should check their privilege, but fails to mention the ever important how, which I think is the better conversation. What actions can I take to 'check my privilege'. Of course I don't want to get a job based only on the fact that I am a woman, but I'm not about to quit my job on the chance that I was. I don't want a promotion for the same reason, but if it were offered to me, I would not say no. All I can think to do is always try my best and not take it for granted. I would also add to appreciate the men in our lives more for what they have accomplished (though I'm preaching to the choir).

This is why the statement pissed me off. Let's say you have privilege. Why not use that to help get yourself educated and fit and financially settled, the he help your partner a bit, then help your community now that you two actually do have everything you need?
Why punch yourself in the face for having something good and not use it to share?

She used the phrase alternative facts. I am happy.
