“Hanna, you went to Harvard. Would an unemployed white guy who used to work in a coal mine in West Virginia have more privilege than you?”
Gender privilege, yes. Class privilege, no. You can be advantaged in some areas and disadvantaged in others. Just as an example: if that guy and his sister are both up for a job at a new mine, will they benefit equally from the employer’s assumptions about their physical strength, bravery, social fit with the rest of the team, etc.? Of course not.
If you want to compare him to me directly, think about each of us taking a long walk alone at 3 AM in Baltimore. He can make that walk pretty confidently; I’d have to be insane to take that risk. That’s male privilege.
Of course, unemployed miners in West Virginia aren’t complaining about discrimination at Yale. So that’s a red herring as far as this thread is concerned.
