idk if I'd call it privilege, but in highly developed countries females do seem to have some things easier than guys. One thing i can think of right now is less familial/societal pressure to go into STEM fields. It's much more acceptable for a girl to go into an artistic field to follow her passion than a guy. if a girl does choose to go into STEM I don't believe it'll be more difficult for her to succeed than a guy.
I'm not really well-informed on this. but to me life in general seems a little easier for girls than guys, in developed countries
But you think it will be more difficult for a man to succeed in the arts if he does go into them? We're really talking about societal pressures here and you can also turn this around and ask why women are underrepresented in STEM fields. Or imagine you're in a hospital and two people walk in to help you, one male and one female. Which one is the doctor and which one is the nurse? Society makes many things out to be male jobs.
Yes but I also think it has to do with the nature of each sex. Men are more competitive than women, generally. They will pursue higher success more diligently than a woman will, usually.
I think if a woman wants to be a doctor, there's nothing really stopping her. Women seem underrepresented in STEM fields because they choose other fields to go into. Gradually this trend may change.
Is it normal that women aren't embracing and using their female privilege?

Hmm. Women who claim female privilege is real aren't very common so I have my doubts.
Then let me ask you, not even necessarily as OP but just as a woman who believes in it, what is female privilege to you? What are some examples?

I'm not trolling. Okay, I'm asking your opinion now then. Do you believe female privilege is real?
