I chose the BuzzFeed checklist and was surprised to discover that I had scored 47/100 "You checked more than 41% of quiztakers".You're not privileged at all. You grew up with an intersectional, complicated identity, and life never let you forget it. You've had your fair share of struggles, and you've worked hard to overcome them. We do not live in an ideal world and you had to learn that the hard way. It is not your responsibility to educate those with more advantages than you, but if you decide you want to, go ahead and send them this quiz. Hopefully it will help."
What I am most shocked is that I feel more privileged than my score reflects. This helped me identify times in my life where I struggled, but it also highlights the deeper financial privileges that I have had being white and marrying a white man. I do not feel that I would be where I am today if I had not done this.
