"8. If you can go anywhere in the country, and easily find the kinds of hair products you need and/or cosmetics that match your skin color, take one step forward."
This is how we're defining "privilege" now. Hair product access.
Well, that list isn't America-centric at all, is it?
"5. If the primary language spoken in your household growing up was not english, take one step back."
What if I'm French? Or German? Are we counting them as oppressed groups now?
"10. If you can make mistakes and not have people attribute your behavior to flaws in your racial/gender group, take one step forward."
I've fucked things up and had people say, "Well, men can't multi-task." So yay, one oppression point for me!
"11. If you can legally marry the person you love, regardless of where you live, take one step forward."
Gay marriage is legal here in the UK. So gay people here are shitlords now?
"24. If you have ever traveled outside the United States, take one step forward."
Not even gonna bother.
"29. If you studied the culture or the history of your ancestors in elementary school take one step forward."
Well, I guess that makes my black South African friend a problematic oppressor.
"35. If you were ever uncomfortable about a joke or a statement you overheard related to your race, ethnicity, gender, appearance, or sexual orientation but felt unsafe to confront the situation, take one step back."
"Yo white boi! What the fuck you wearin'?" Shouted at me in London a short while ago.
