Yes ... in spite of the shame and persecution in today's Amerika, I am proud to be heterosexual.

If you're black and not successful, it's because of white folks' inherent white privilege. They've failed to succeed only because of whiteness.

If you're a white male and not a millionaire, then you are a lazy shitlord.

Never mind that the absolute worse "poverty" in America involves white people.

Let me make sure I understand the UW bulletin board: I'm somehow entitled to increased societal "privileges" because I prefer to engage in sexual relations with women instead of men/children/animals/dead?

Game over. This is beyond my scope of rational thought. It does not compute.

DAMN.

Men, children, and animals can give permission. But with the dead you've gone too far.

A bulletin board? And you make a post about it? Geez, the conservatives around here need to stop with the desire to be victimized.

A post? ****...the idiots at not-so-Breitbart made a whole story about it.!

Whatever it takes to keep being a victim I guess.

I dunno, it does have ample construction paper, seems like the next step is clearly forced homosexuality.

There are no poor white people. Those shitlords are all millionaires who oppress minorities and secretly attend KKK meetings.

I was out oppressing people all day. It's hard work, even with white privilege.

They are saying that all white and heterosexual people are the same and have not suffered adversity. It lumps all individual experience together in one group based upon assumptions and stereo types.

Additionally, implicit in the notion of privilege is racism or sexist against minorities. It assumes that it is "better" to be born white and heterosexual. Consequently, it would have to be inferior to be born a minority or homosexual. We should all reject the ridiculous notion of racial or sexual privilege.

While I don't particularly like the term 'privilege', I do find it reasonable so long as it is used in its proper context. Which is NOT that it is better to be born white, male, Christian, and straight...but that it is EASIER to be born that way.

Tell that to the millions of better qualified white men who have been bypassed for promotions due to affirmative action.

And tell that to the millions of men who have been victimized in divorce court.
