"Check Your Privilege"
A now famous meme spread across the world of social justice activism by radical feminists and manfems/manginas, "Check Your Privilege" is code speak for "men benefit from misogyny". It is a war cry that galvanizes even average women into a frenzy of male bashing and other displays of fanaticism.
Yet, while this meme has no problem rallying women and rousing feminists to war, it is only almost as capable of stirring up a hornet's nest as when someone calls upon women to... you guessed it...
Check Your Privilege.
Here are some privileges that are granted women, which women will never actually deny that they have, but they will swarm in a blood rage if they're called upon to recognize them, much less give them up.
1. In 2008, a law was passed in England and Wales that allowed long-term domestic violence victims who killed their abuser to be charged with the lesser charge of manslaughter, but this only applies to women. Disregarding the fact that women are just as violent in domestic partnerships as well as dismissing the victims in domestic violence that are gay and trans.
2. In most states, a woman can name any man she likes as the father, he gets a letter in the mail, if he does not prove he isn’t the father within a set deadline (suppose the letter gets lost by the USPS?), he is now the father and must pay. He cannot contest it. And DNA tests to prove paternity are not considered proof by the courts. California only recently addressed this in 2004 with a law extending this challenge deadline to 2 years. http://www.dna-testing-paternity.com/child-support/paternity-fraud-still-an-issue
3. Women are treated better in most aspects of the legal system. For instance, women receive lighter sentences and a higher chance of acquittal, simply for being women.
4. Men comprise 95% of workplace deaths. No feminist group, and hardly any pro-capitalist organization, has ever pushed to fix this. Yet society is totally up in arms about women earning less than men.
5. Men who are falsely accused of rape can have their names published and their lives ruined even if they are not convicted or charged - their accuser is protected and is likely to face no punishment, or a light one. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-...-false-rape-claim-may-proceed-judge-says.html
6. The majority of homeless are men. More than women and children COMBINED.
7. Selective service. Even though women can now serve in combat roles, they're exempt from registering.
Stop dodging the issue, feminists. None of these examples are factually wrong. These are examples of the privileges you get for being female. Check your privilege.

In short, feminists know that men who are not the father of the child get accused of being the father, and they have taken an active part in keeping some shred of the status quo. Nobody can deny this. It's a money grab by women. Check your privilege.Advocates said that, the California law passed the Legislature with virtually unanimous support because it was a compromise bill. A stronger “paternity fraud” bill had been offered in the state Senate, according to lawyer Marc Angelucci, a leader of the National Coalition of Free Men. However, the Senate bill, was opposed by California child- support officials as well as feminist groups who viewed it as a “get-out-of-jail-free card.”
