Did you notice that you called straight white men "normal"? What does that make everyone else? When people use the word "privilege", that's exactly what they mean.
I'm not supporting an opinion one way or another. But, you did not read and interpret what she said correctly.0 -

I'm just saying its exactly the same as any group - "disabled people", "black people", "asians", "midgets", etc. These groups experience discrimination. There would be a major reaction if there were stickers referring to such groups. Fat people experience discrimination too, so similar logic.
But it's not the same thing as those, the above are all protected against discrimination by our pesky little government(& they should be).
I understand completely the point you're trying to make...I get it.
People experience discrimination for a lot of different things...you can't make them all illegal.
I agree that it shouldn't be illegal. I'm fat, but I made myself fat. Being black, disabled, deaf, blind, handicapped in any way, or elderly - these are things that people can't choose or change. I am against any form of censorship, no matter what, despite whether or not I agree with the message.
That said, the OP is entitled to her opinion as well.0 -

Since this "normal" refers to another, unspecified criteria and NOT being white, or male as they were already mentioned., you can disagree all you like, but you'd be wrong.
That isn't to say that she isn't improperly labeling some other criteria as "not normal".0 -
It can be offensive, but it is very literal. Those are usually posted on lowered hondas or toyotas, where their muffler pipe is 1-2" off the ground. If a heavy "person" gets in, the car drops to the ground, whereby making it scrape on the asphalt when they go through an intersection or over a speed hump.
I personally am not hip with it....so I don't know. I hate lowered cars altogether. I have a friend who's son's car is lowered. A bunny rabbit took the oil pan out. A bunny rabbit.0 -

I believe that any sort of pejorative stickers against bbws is wrong... Not everyone can be or should be stick thin...
Beauty comes in many different forms -- not just the stupid Barbie Doll images that are portrayed in television and other forms of mass media... At least the mass media of the US.0 -

EDIT: Had she compared "normal white men" to "abnormal white men" I would totally see your point, but I really don't think it applies here. Normal here is just another quality that these poor white men have in addition to being white and male. But I'm done diagramming sentences because it's a ****ty position either way.0 -
i cannot stand the term "reverse-racism"
it's either racist or it isn't.0 -
I think the correct term is "African American" and not "Black People" Live and let live. Just remember, all police officers my not be slender. Karma's a ":^%!
i strongly prefer "black people". not even kidding.
In Trinidad, we were Dougla & Coolie.
In the US, no one makes those distinctions.
When I got married, my new in laws had just walked into the hall and got a good look at my family & extended family for the first time.
new FIL: who are all these black people?
Me: what black people?

In any event, I'm highly offended that he left out "abnormal" white, heterosexual, right handed males with entirely too much time on their hands.0 -

Do you mean the lowered hondas with the "balls"? lol0
