From John Scalzi, an interesting gamer analogy for straight white male privilege. Thanks to a couple friends on Facebook for calling my attention to his post.

What a wonderful metaphor! I'd stopped reading Scalzi, but I may need to start again. Thanks for calling our attention to this.

One of my writers brought that essay to my attention. She felt it didn't address enough privileges, particularly socioeconomic class: http://goodmenproject.com/good-feed-blog/privilege-the-video-game-version-1-1/
