Interesting quiz, always something I try and remind myself. Being more or less straight, white, and a male, in Amureka I've got it relatively ****ing fantastic. S'more about my input into my life than it is anything else. The only reason I got a somewhat lower score is because my family history is a little messed... but so is just about EVERY****INGONE ELSES. Sometime that **** gets me down though. Quite refreshing. I am priviliged, shan't forget it.
I know, right, I have a messed up family too, but I didn't understand on the quiz why things like "My parents are still together" or "My parents are married" (or whatever it was) would make a difference in terms of privilege? But yeah, right on man - positive post.
