I hate the term privilege because it sounds like you have something that other people don’t have. When in reality privilege is the lack of things.

White privilege means a person doesn’t have to worry nearly as much about police. Straight privilege means a person doesn’t have to defend their right to get married. Male privilege means a person doesn’t have to survive earning 30% less money for no reason.
