I don't think that relying on men to give up their privilege is the best course of action. I certainly have known several men who were more feminist than I am, but to trust men in our social structure to jump on the feminist bandwagon and give up their privilege is asking a bit much.
For me, when I start seeing
-a men's magazines devoted itself to staying attractive, dieting, self-help, cleaning products and fashion
-a TV station "for women" that doesn't focus on weddings, houswives, and birthing stories
-men (as the rule instead of the exception) using cleaning products in an ad
-shaving ads for men that treat men like incompetent boobs who can't handle a "safety" razor
then I'll know we might have a chance at changing our social structure.
