I think the statement was using the rhetorical trick of stating the opposite so the reader can infer the privilege themselves.
I'm under the impression that McAvoy doesn't perceive what Mithrandir said as a constituted privilege what not.

Yeah, it's almost like getting murdered by someone of your own sex as apposed to the opposite isn't a privilege or something.

Well I mean it's not like men necessarily make for as easy of innocent targets though.

Personally I am of the mind that collective statistics that get thrown around in fashion don't serve for very conductive consideration on an individual level.

This movie hasn't even opened in Japan yet. There are reasons I think this could be more appealing to the Japanese then any prior Batman movie.

The release in Japan is supposed to be a re-cut of the movie to down it down to something more like a PG rating.

On the other hand, COVID-19 might have an effect on theater attendance.
