I can certainly sympathize with her position, but as generalization she's completely wrong. The null hypothesis should never be considered a generalized privilege; that's absurd. Being thin might seem like a privilege to someone with an eating disorder, but only in the same way that being sober might feel like a privilege to an alcoholic. So I sympathize with her, but I don't agree with her.

2019-03-05 14:38:17 +0000 UTCI was 5'10", 330 pounds. LIFE SUCKED. Then I lost 100 pounds and got hella laid. Being thin is a better experience than being fat; calling it a privilege is emphasizing an "external locus of control," which cripples someone's ability to make positive change in their life. I mean, damn, son, it's not being in a shitty situation that spells the end of happiness, it's giving up, you know?
