Are you "privileged" ? - Rotobeast - 03-19-2016

Are you "privileged" ?
Take the test to find out.
I scored 23/100.
Apparently I am not "privileged", at all.

1) I am white.


Lmfao, I wonder where that's going.

Hmm, I also got "not privileged." I wonder if I can staple this test to my next job application.

RE: Are you "privileged" ? - fredtoast - 03-19-2016

I got a 3.

Another reason I am not privileged.

The way I see it is that it's the one on the receiving end who isn't privileged.

I got 41. The thing is though, I sort of consider that my life has been "privileged" in comparison to others.

Fitty - five!!!!!

I live a life of luxury.

Straight ballin'. 

All of you white boys that don't believe in white privilege just don't have it like I do... Kiss the ring!

Pretty sure I would score high on the scale. Doubt I would qualify for any free stuff.

God I hate Buzzfeed.

Actually, it is based upon your perception so if you are one of those guys who thinks straight white males are under attack, you'll probably score pretty low.

Exactly what I was going for.
It also works the other direction, for those not a CIS white male.

I believe the test is slightly slanted, but offers insight to those not aware of the hoopla.

Alternatively, they could have called this study "are you ********?"

You got a 3 you say?




FWIW I got:
You live with 55 out of 100 points of privilege.

  1. You’re quite privileged. You’ve had a few struggles, but overall your life has been far easier than most. This is not a bad thing, nor is it something to be ashamed of. But you should be aware of your advantages and work to help others who don’t have them. Thank you for checking your privilege.

I would have scored quite a few more points except for the understanding folks in this forum shaming me on various subjects asked about.
