The "highest paid woman in American business" since 2014 is a TIM. The youngest Queen's Bench Master in the UK High Court in history is a TIM. The person hailed as "the world's greatest athlete" of the 1970s is a TIM. The "first British woman ever to serve in combat" is a TIM. The "first woman commercial airline captain" is a TIM. The recipients of the US state of Connecticut's "Courage Award" are two TIMs, and they got that award for competing in girls' HS track and trouncing all the females. A 43 year-old TIM from New Zealand will be competing as a woman in the upcoming Olympics...

I didn't know any of this except for the World's Greatest Athlete. But this is all is insane. So essentially all the "women" who found success outside of the entertainment industry are TIMs and therein is one of the examples of male privilege because women have a hard enough time trying to find success outside of the entertainment world.

How on earth can you not see all the male privilege in all these TIMs and the male dominance behavior they openly and constantly display?

I'm just trying to really dig deep into the privilege really. Because time and again you hear non-famous trans-identified men swear up and down that they don't have male privilege and I know that's not true but I'm still new to unwrapping and truly understand the concept even when it comes to men who on the surface feel like they don't have it just because they don't conform to masculinity.

I will look into the stories you mentioned.
