LGBT To what Extent has Christine Benefitted from Male and White Privilege? -

[Le Bateleur]

Of course she is now a Transwoman, but Christine grew up as Male - and White. It would be problematic not to acknowledge that Christine has suffered from disadvantageous circumstances, but that does not mean we are permitted to discount the overarching nature of White privilege, Male privilege, or indeed White Male privilege.

As Peggy McIntosh puts it in her groundbreaking piece White Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack:

For this reason, the word "privilege" now seems to me misleading. We usually think of privilege as being a favored state, whether earned or conferred by birth or luck. Yet some of the conditions I have described here work systematically to over empower certain groups. Such privilege simply confers dominance because of one's race or sex.

How different would Christine's life have been if she did not live for almost thirty years as an identified Male? What if she were a Person of Color? Would she have been more or less vulnerable to the trolling? How would the Sonichu comic be different?

I really would like to see a discussion of the issues I mention in my OP.

Christian had been a POC he would have been immensely better off. First thing you gotta realize is POCs can never be wrong. Only the victim. This would have benefited Christian profoundly as he's often wrong or foolish. Second of all, it would have made some of the racist stuff he did.... a little bit more acceptable. It certainly would have made the blackface more confusing.

Now down to what would be bad. I doubt his claim to British Royalty would have been taken very seriously. Also he probably wouldn't get an autism pass every time he was arrested... just saying.

Man, I can't wait for Phantom Pain to come out.

Had Chris been born female, she would know that menstruating fucking sucks.

Seriously though, whatever white male privilege he enjoys has been greatly overshadowed by his autism privilege.

NO, his time privilege is the worst. HAD he been born in the Sparta, he'd have died on that cliff as a baby.

If Chris was born female he'd go find someone to have Chrystal with.

Chris' attraction sign would have to read "No Honkies" instead.
