[QUOTE=Melissa;287920]I also think that privilege is highly dependent on context and in relation to things like age, race, size, education, and looks. A white male has more privilege than a black male in certain contexts......
The U.S.A. has a black male as president - there are always the exceptions..... A short, overweight, unattractive and uneducated white male will have less access to certain privileges than a young, tall, attractive highly educated white woman. In this case privilege is not based on sex but on education and looks. And we do privilege certain types of people based on how they look. ......well i think you just described Elton John, short, overweight, unattractive and white and hes very privileged indeed - lol! |
