I agree, but privilege is about more than the colour of your skin or what you have between your legs. Intersectionality theory often misses this. Being intelligent is a privilege. Being attractive is a privilege. Having rich parents is a privilege. Having both parents at home is a privilege.

All of these things are positively correlated with good outcomes and all of them are accidents of birth. Marion appears to have all of them. To claim that she's underprivileged just because she's black, especially today, is simplistic.

Appreciate your responses too. Pleasure chatting with you.
