Thinking about an Alaska trip later this summer. Still use that old gmail address I've sent you email on before (a long time ago)?

I'm a straight white male born in America, the most prestigious species of all humans. No regrets about how proud I am about it either, I scored a 77 btw

44.

The only time I've felt like I benefited from white privilege (god, I hate that term), was when I was a kid getting in trouble for weed. Being white, well educated, and upper middle class helped the courts act lenient.

Thank God for it too. Otherwise, it could've really fricked up my life and career opportunities.

I don't know how to answer one of the questions. It says "I've never been called a phag." I'm straight but I do have older brothers so...

Baw, you can't be that privileged if you're still on Sprint.

Holy shite that was terrible. If I answered those literally, then I really am low on privilege scale.

I can't figure out what they're asking me here. Questions for schizophrenics? Or like shame for having internet alters?

I was a teenager. Who at that age, wasn't called a phag? We were mean as hell to each other. And if you screwed up and let people know that it bothered you, you were really screwed.

I'm not clear on those either. "Identities" could refer to several things.

Does that make me more or less privileged for not already knowing what they mean?

Less, for sure! Maybe I'd know if my parents had sent me to an elite university.

I've tried quitting this site a couple times. Is that trying to distance myself from one of my identities?
