    lol 48. I'm white, hetero, middle class, in Canada. Trust me, I'm pretty privileged compared to a lot of the world. So what if (example) my dad called me fat as a kid? I lost the weight because of the ridicule. It probably helped that there was no internet to cry to back then, so I spent time out of the house, doing physical activity. There's a bunch of technicalities I fell into that produced my score.

  • Not being raped is a PRIVILEGE, not a right! /s

    This test is kinda wacky. And it's fuckin' Buzzfeed. Whatever, I took it anyways. Also, what the fuck is with the sexual assault questions!? Jesus man. 65/100, Quite Privileged.

    Well, I already know what my score is going to be now.

    Edit: Yeah, figured as much

    You've had a few struggles, but overall your life has been easier than most.

    That's a bit of an insult, since nobody's life is easy.

  • 41/100 not privileged 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.

  • Buzzfeed? No thanks

  • Straight to the shitty side of Tumblr.

    I got like 46/100, Buzzfeed, I know where to go if I want to be insulted for my race, sexuality, and gender.

  • This is probably gonna go up.... 81/100- You’re among the most privileged people in the world. We don’t live in an ideal world, but you happened to be born into an ideal lot. This is not a bad thing, nor is it something to be ashamed of. It just means a lot of other people in the world don’t live life with the advantages you have, and that’s something you should always be aware of. Hey, the fact that you took the time and effort to check your privilege means that you’re already trying.

    Okayyyy then Buzzfeed....

  • "I have never been called a fag"

    Anyone who has ever played a online video game has been called a faggot at least once, presumably by a toddler that had sexual intercourse with your mother.

  • Yup, the loveliest part of the internet.

    I didn't take the test because i don't have the patience to check all of those boxes and it assumes i have graduated from college and am currelty working, which i'm not.But from what i could see Buzzfeed's logic is: white straight male=privileged... lel

  • 36/100. It said I'm not privileged.

  • 23/100. It said I'm "underprivileged."

  • edited April 2016

    Buzzfeed at it again. They are so stupid. This honestly makes me cringe...really hard.
    Anyway, I got 58 out of 100. "Quite privileged"...the best thing is, I couldn't give 2 fucks about whether i'm more privileged more or less than others. When will buzzfeed focus on real issues with the underprivileged? Not just the babies that cry because of first-world problems? I'm talking the ones who will never see this quiz because they live in such a location they will never use a piece of technology in their lives. People dying of hunger and disease. Not getting upset because someone insulted their 'sexuality' or something. Life moves on from those things...I mean, they are issues and i'm not denying that, but its kinda infuriating when an entire company just soley focuses on these small issues. Completely missing the bigger picture.
    Anyway, I'm triggered. Thanks OP ;)

  • You live with 74 out of 100 points of privilege.

    You’re quite privileged. You’ve had a few struggles, but overall your life has been far easier than most. This is not a bad thing, nor is it something to be ashamed of. But you should be aware of your advantages and work to help others who don’t have them. Thank you for checking your privilege.

    Two problems with this.

    Crushing poverty abroad doesn't invalidate social issues in the community. Having a sense of scale is important, but I think all indignities should by challenged. i volunteer with a group that consults with people who feel they have been discriminated against by local businesses. Should I stop what I'm doing because children in Yemen are being killed by airstrikes? Of course the point is moot because I don't think BuzzFeed is trying to help, beyond lip-service.

    I mean, they are issues and i'm not denying that, but its kinda infuriating when an entire company just soley focuses on these small issues.

    If you think that's what Buzzfeed is about, then you're the one missing the big picture, m8. The purpose of Buzzfeed is to generate ad revenue with clickbait articles and videos. Attracting tumblr types and goading others is an effective means to that end.

  • What the fuck is sally mae?

    This test pissed me off on so many fucking levels. I had a Mohawk people asked if it was real and wanted to touch it all the time. I went to school in a mainly black area I was bullied for my race at school. I have been the only member of my race in a room multiple times just last night my friend visited we were both the only members of our race sat in a room all night (ouch my poor privilege). "I consider myself attractive" you can have a shitty life and consider yourself to be fiiiine. Im from the west country I get mocked for accent but I dont give a fuck! Im straight and I used to have loads of gay friends but one girl was fucking vile to me she was always bullying me for being a "ashley girl" whatever the fuck that means she was so damn nasty to me I ended up distancing myself from that friendship circle.

    Basically what the test is trying to work out is if your white and straight so it can call you a shitlord, but the questions suck because because these statements can apply to anyone

  • Why does being black=shitty underprivileged life thats fucking racist. These smarmy bastards that make these tests piss me off so damn much they guilt trip people for being born a certain way and then pity people for being born another way, its sickening, Its offensive and dehumanizing

    How Privileged Are You?

    You live with 0 out of 100 points of privilege.

    You’re underprivileged. The world is not a fair or ideal place and you know that because you grew up with several identities that the world is not kind to. You had a lot of challenges to overcome simply to get on a level playing field with most people in the world. It is not your job to educate the world about its injustices, but if you choose to, go ahead and send them this quiz. Hopefully it will help

    My identities

    batman, superman, spiderman, Hulk, deadpool, wolverine and darth vader reporting in Cis scum

    The whole world now owes me

    I'm king of tumblr

    The whole sjw army is now mine and serves me

    All my dislikes will now be triggers and offensive to make or say

    Everything will have to Carter to me alone for now on to be pc acceptable

    So much power muahhahaa

  • This article in a nutshell (I probably missed something):

    • Are you white?
    • Are you heterosexual?
    • Are you a man?
    • Are you poor?
    • Could you aford the best study conditions?
    • Was/is your family stable?
    • Do you have any physical problem?
    • Do you have any psychological problem?/have you ever had a psychological problem?
    • Have you been discriminated for believing in a certain god?
    • Have you been discriminated for your ethnicity?
    • Are you happy with yourself?

    59/100 - without being modest I'm way more privileged than that hence me believing that this is really inaccurate.

  • I am quite privileged

    Yeah I know what you mean, and I did say they are issues and i'm not saying they should be avoided. It's just all I hear of BuzzFeed is stupid shit that tries to spread awareness of these problems, but instead causes drama and targets other groups of society, such as men, or pretty much anything white. I mean...check out the quiz...and then they only discuss these insignificant things and make it like it's such a big deal, there are more important things to worry about. The REAL big deals, are what I mentioned.
    Things like being discriminated against and having it actually affect your work-life (as per your example), are different to feeling like every man is a mysoginist cow because someone whistled at you one day, or making a big deal out of certain words (the 'n' word), for example...really not an issue. I think their videos on suicide, depression and such are much more powerful and applicable to issues in today's society.
    But I understand you, it's hard to word what I'm trying to get at. We shouldn't avoid the 'smaller' issues, not my point, I just feel like BuzzFeed makes it into a much bigger deal than it really is, whether it's clickbait money-making tactics or not...but that's just me.

    Everyone has their opinions and I suppose backgrounds also. Maybe I just can't apply this thinking because it doesn't affect my life as much...or maybe i'm just 'privileged' ;)
