The concept of 'privilege olympics' is fucking stupid.

Class is the primary indicator of privilege. Race, gender, whatever else, are all secondary.

A rich woman will generally have more privilege than a poor man. A rich black will generally have more privilege than a poor white. A rich homosexual will generally have more privilege than a poor heterosexual.

There is no situation ever where a poor person has more privilege than a rich person, because even if you have every other box on the oppression chart ticked off, having a shit-ton of money offers you so much mobility that you still come out on top.

Class is the biggest arbiter of discrimination.

Is there anything, in your mind, that Feminism has right? Or should it be tossed out entirely?

Yeah but that's just an academic distinction, as all other things are never equal. It has no actual function in reality.

In reality it doesn't matter if you're a member of another privileged or oppressed group or not, if you've got enough money.

That being said, one of the big differences between the second wave and the third wave was near-celibate advocacy vs sex-positive feminism. Does sex-positive feminism have any value, or is it just as bad as the rest of the third wave?
