Running Head: WHITE MALE PRIVILEGE 1 White Male Privilege Miranda J. Repass Stautzenberger College In this paper I will be explaining what white male privilege is and the significance of it.

In The “New Man” and the Mexican Immigrant Man, Hondagneu-Sotelo and Messner argue that the “new man” are white privileged men and Mexican immigrant men are still seen as traditional sexist men because they do not possess much power in the U.S because they lack spatial mobility or family decision-making.
