Description OH BOY. It's been a while since I've posted a stamp...I do have stamp requests ready in my Sta.sh and I'm very sorry for not posting those sooner. Thanks to school for the past 2 months, I actually forgot they were in there?

Apparently, I should go eat a whale's dick because I'm a "filthy little cishet" (a white, straight, cisgendered girl) who's better off than others. I've seen so much of this "privilege" shit on Tumblr that it's one of my new Internet peeves.

I’m not even that privileged. My family is not “privileged” enough to afford my entire college tuition, on top of my brother’s high school tuition. I'm flat-out broke and I don't even have a job. The only things I'm privileged with is getting a good education, not having my rights violated, and basically having a pretty lucky life so far.

And my boyfriend? He is so under-privileged for a “white cishet male,” it’s not even funny. Most of the time, I’m worrying my ass off for him over there because he can’t even afford to move out of his abusive, dysfunctional family that’s practically on welfare and causing him to develop depression. Just this past summer, he was contemplating suicide. And I can’t afford to help him. My fundraiser for him is literally dead because no one has commissioned me. If you can still call him "privileged," even though he's much worse off than average, don't even try to make that argument because I will fucking give you a tongue-lashing.

"GO DIE IN A HOLE U PRIVILEGED WHITE PERSON!!1!!one!!!"

Yes, white cisgendered people have the advantage as a whole. But that doesn't mean let's go insult every white cisgendered person we can find and talk shit to them. That's called "generalizing," which is not really a good thing. Why?

Because I CAN'T HELP BEING BETTER OFF THAN MOST PEOPLE, SORRY. 

Sorry for being an average white, straight, cisgendered, American lower middle-class female who's had an easy life than most, okay? But there's nothing I can do about it. So don't act like a fuck-ass because I can't help being who I am.

Really, what am I supposed to do?! Get a sex change, flunk out of school, give away all my family's wealth, move to a different country, permanently die my skin to a different color, and purposely become homeless? All to appease strangers who aren't as "privileged" as me?! Fuck no! I'm not going to suddenly change everything about myself and my status, just because people don't like that I'm better off than they are.

So fuck privileges. Don't whine and complain to me about how hard your life is, why I have it easy, and why I should eat a dick or die in a hole or [some other insult] for having a privileged life.

Life is shitty, okay? Even to privileged people, it's shitty. Life is shitty to everyone across the board. Some have it better and some don't. OH WELL. Don't like that you don't have it as good as someone else? Then fucking do something about it yourself. Go get a job to earn more money, go vote for better rights, go marry the person you love, go do something good for others...Anything that'll put you at the same level as everyone else.

But complaining to other people about how privileged they are is counter-productive. They can't do anything about who they are and their privileges, so why are you complaining to them? Grow the fuck up and make life better for yourself if you hate it that much!
