My privilege as a straight, white, cisgender, middle class thin male

[Roxy904]

The only reason privilege are ever mentioned is to guilt trip people and make them feel bad and make the accuser seem like they know what they are talking about. You can't change your privlildges and bringing them up adds nothing to the conversation but to discredit you and imply that your opinion isn't as valid. You're a man, so you can't talk about abortion. You're white, so you can't talk about racism. You're straight, so you can't talk about homosexuality. You're cis so you can't talk about gender disphoria. You're rich so you can't talk about poverty.

I have no problem with most of your statement, but I would like to make a point. You can talk about something, even if you are not what you're talking about. However, if you're white, you haven't experienced racial discrimination against a black person, even if you have witnessed discrimination or if you haven't. Example: if someone's purse had been stolen, and you had witnessesed it happen, that doesn't mean you know what it feels like to have your purse stolen. I hope I've made sense.
