I should also point that the better deals isn't my main complaint here. My main complaint is with companies that decide to only offer insurance to women, and not to men. Offering better prices to women might be a good business strategy for an insurance company, and might not be sexist (just female privilege), but not offering insurance at all? That is clear sexism.
Whilst we're on the subject, what about clubs giving free entry to women after certain hours, whilst still charging men? What statistics and studies support that idea? It's privilege.
Also, who said anything about "policies based on prejudice"? Is that how we are assessing things now? If the reasoning behind an action isn't based on prejudice, it's fine, even if it affects a certain sex more than another? If that is the case, you can't defend any of the things on the list of "male privileges" (or "female privileges"), since one could easily claim they aren't being prejudiced.
