A gender/privilege topic disclaimer

For future reference:

Disclaimer: I’ve never written about gender and privilege topics - I’m a hetero white male who grew up in a suburban, anglo, Christan, two-parent family in the 70s and 80s when such things were (to me) normal. I didn’t go through much of a rebellious stage (barring a couple of years of slightly-over-drinking, hair-coloring and ear-piercings that didn’t offend, literally, anyone).

As John Scalzi would put it, my life has been basically lived on the lowest difficuly setting and I’ve been fortunate due to no particular effort on my own part. Please forgive statements made as fact that are obvious to you to be side-effects of this phenomenon, and please feel free to get in touch with any feedback.
