Being influenced by your position in life certainly effects how you view things (such as whether you are straight, white, black or homosexual etc), but it isn't the only part of a personality that informs someone's response. <br /><br />The example you cited, where a woman was more critical of Rebecca than yourself, was perfect.<br /><br />I have this strange hobby of going to feminist websites and watching the fallout over basically every subject possible. You could make a post about kittens being cute at Feministe and be eviserated for your privileged position. It's terribly entertaining.<br /><br />It's as if the only way to win an argument or make a point is to be a poor, black, lesbian in a wheel chair.<br /><br />I've seen a black woman rant 'check your white privilege' in the comments (she stated she was black) to another commenter, who then replied that she was actually black as well...slightly awkward for the inital commenter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1138570918413841323.post-8016097126375801332011-07-09T22:42:50.094-04:002011-07-09T22:42:50.094-04:00"When I disagree with someone I find it best ..."When I disagree with someone I find it best to focus on the argument itself."<br /><br />If only that were a more common attitude.UNRRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17093711439992855042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1138570918413841323.post-68988038916671529402011-07-09T09:49:01.681-04:002011-07-09T09:49:01.681-04:00When I disagree with someone I find it best to foc...When I disagree with someone I find it best to focus on the argument itself. Absurd? Possibly. Useful? Definitely.<br /><br />Even if the other person's opinion is clouded by race or class it is typically counter productive to point it out.Andrew Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01495983897864604830noreply@blogger.com
