You see, “Black/Brown/other ethnic women wake up in the morning, look in the mirror, and see Black,/Brown/ethnic women.White women wake up in the morning, look in the mirror, and see women. White men wake up in the morning, look in the mirror, and see human beings“. This is how privilege works.

as much as I want to agree with this, I also have a lot of problems with this. Lets start with, why do I have to fall into the category of ‘other ethnic women’. What about ethnic men? What about people who are ethnic but look ‘white’? WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO DONT IDENTIFY AS ‘black, brown, white, ethnic, men, women, etc?’. What if we got rid of these arbitrary distinctions all together? We’re all just humynz y’all.
