If you dont understand what people mean when they say you're privileged....

[HonorableBrit]

You're retarded


Privileged doesn't necessarily mean that you have it easy. It just means that that you have it easy compared to others.


If you're born white, you could still have a plethora of issues to deal with and obstacles to overcome in life but one thing you'll seldom have to deal with is worrying about not fitting in based on physical appearance or being paranoid about others not liking you because of your physical appearance. If you're white, you have the pleasure of being able to be judged as an individual most of the time and not be grouped in with other people. Obviously, there are exceptions to the rule but those are just that, exceptions. I don't care if some random asian or black dude was racist to you one time. They're the minority.

If you're born straight, you can express yourself sexually without judgement

If you're born in a 1st world country and healthy, you're better off than most of the world already

If you're born with a great family and tall, you're better off than most people already

If you were born in recent decades, you're better off than your predecessors. I don't give a chit if this generation annoys you. Living in 2014 is unquestionably better than living in 1814. *******s complaining about how they hate living in 2014 wouldn't last a week without air conditioning, modern medicine, modern technology, our modern thought process (not being forced to go to war), etc

Which is true. They are privileged in that manner.

You can be privileged in some areas and not privileged in others. Not hard to figure out

[JRJester]

So why are we supposed to feel guilty about being privileged?

If anything I feel pride. I am proud that my forefathers built one of the greatest nations in civilization which gives me such a great quality of life.

Not once will I feel guilty about it. Nor about being white, or about being straight.

Nobody said feel guilty about it.


Hardcore liberals and feminists make up a small minority of the population. This website is full of white conservative males though so miscers seek out comments/stories from the aforementioned groups so they can have an excuse to bitch about something

It's not that privilege doesn't exist, just that 90% of the time, anybody who says it doesn't know what the hell they're talking about. ie male privilege, being seen as some absolute advantage as oppose to one side of the coin where female privilege can be even greater.

exactly

a great example is white privilege; just because white people earn more on average doesnt mean they are privileged as a race.

This is because there is little to no evidence to show a causal link between race and income; only a correlation.

I asked that because the only people who refer to privilege are the ones who imply that we should feel guilty about it. They even want us to go as far as to put ourselves and our accomplishments down in order to appease other groups.

I work in a job place where the minorities are the majority. They wear black power tshirts.

I'm straight and I can't express my feelings on homosexuals with out judgement.

My mother was a drug addict who died at 44 from long term drug use and my father was in prison my entire childhood.

But you're right.

I'd say white females are the most privileged group in the western world.

[HeeHee23]

Brah, all people are created equal. Racism died with Abraham Lincoln. There are no privileges, we all start out equal and whoever makes it makes it and whoever doesn't can live with the rest of the lazy, non-evolved mongoloids at the bottom of the barrel whether you're from Alabama or from Africa. I worked hard to get mine without any help from anybody or anything. I was born a blank slate and through intensity, integrity, and intelligence I willed my way out of my mother's womb and I created myself into a god among men. Your only privilege is that you happen to exist at the same time as the beginning of my great reign.

These are both accurate.

Privilege is real, but when you have guys going "hurr durr I never had any white privilege" or social justice warriors judging everything about people in relation to their identity politics, it's highly misunderstood concept

[KidJRay]

Real talk bro. Nice post.

I want you cats to listen to this track, it might expand your mind. Think about it for a second, because this is the reality for a lot of us folks who are considered a minority.



And this track provides some good food for thought on the topic of 'being priveleged'.

Yeah, I'm surprised to. Miscers are SO out of touch when it comes to race

[IPoopStandingUp]

So you are saying white people are judged as individuals and not lumped together, as you lump them together as a group?

[KidJRay]

So you are saying white people are judged as individuals and not lumped together, as you lump them together as a group?

What the OP is trying to say is that, people of color will get judged as gangbanging, dumb, loud, ignorant motherfukkers, almost instantly most of the time or people will presume they fit in with some of/all those stereotypes. Whereas white folks are much more likely to judged without prejudice, and thus as an individual. No matter what you say, the white man still can't handle it when they see a black man being succesful and not adhering to the stereotypes.

"Up in 1st class, laugh even though it's not funny
See a white man wonder how the fukk I got money
While he sit at coach, hate to see me walk past 'im
Young black pants sag, headphones blastin'
Know what he askin', "how did he manage?"
"With all the cards against him, he used them to his advantage!"
Slang we be speakin' probably soundin' like Spanish
Then I fukk their heads up when a n***a show manners"
