Men as "Gendered Beings"

When I look into the mirror I see a woman just like the white woman from the article," Men as 'Gendered Beings'." According to the article I do not see a white woman  because being white is like being raceless. I do not see a human being because being being female is not like being genderless as is being male. This is something that we previously discussed in class and we said how black females unfortunately are not raceless or genderless. So what is so great about being genderless or raceless? the answer is that tools that which grant us privileges are often invisible to us. Thus, white males are privileged for two reasons and black females are oppressed for two reasons. I must say that in thinking about this I realized that when someone describes another person to me they do not include race if the person is white but they do include it if they are black. I agree to the reasoning behind this to a point, however, I think that part of the reason is also just because the difference in population. I know personally I grew up in a predominantly white area so when referring to someone, race was only mentioned when it was different from the norm. I would assume that in predominantly black areas this would not be the case and perhaps even reversed but I honestly would not know.
