- coldtea 12y agoWell, the only level easier than SWM is "(Upper)-Middle-class minority playing the minority card". If you're gay from a poor family in Alabama, you got it tough. If you're gay from an upper middle class family in, say, New York, you can use it to your advantage.
- kls 12y agoI should note that I’m planning to Mallet anyone who decides to start a debate on the word “privilege” in this thread. I’ve already established that straight white dudes often cannot deal with the term rationally; there’s no need for a) any of them to prove it, b) anyone else to reiterate the fact. Not much room for disagreeing with his summation now is there.
