Women get a walk for everything unless they kill someone or are a legit kingpin. Men get 10 years for what could be a personal use amount of drugs or some violent encounter where no one really got hurt.
Agree.

I remember some pretty girl in her early 20s tweeted about an experience where she was pulled over for various traffic violations occurring simultaneously, but the cop let her off with a warning.

Rather than breathing a sigh of relief, she took to Twitter and complained about how this was "an example of white privilege", and talked about how unfair it was to others.

I responded, "Oh, you're correct that you got out of that ticket because of a certain kind of privilege, but it's not the one that you think."


As you said, females have tremendous privilege when it comes to being defendants in the justice system. It's true that white, young, pretty females have the most privilege of anyone in that area, but all females in general do far better than males, by a wide margin.
