im of European origin and ancestry i don't have skin as white as yours and natta lmo's.
most people in spain have darker skin, italy, greece e.t.c.
white is a skin colour, whit privilege is related to colourism and is the benefit you get from being lighter skinned than darker skinned people.
white is not a race, black is not a race. its a colour, specifically a skin colour,

white privilege is a sociological concept, science dosn't use shortened terms is specific if it mentions colour it means colour, strangely because its sub sect of coloursim that talks about the benefits of having lighter skin. weird that.
Jesus fucking christ. Are we really arguing wether asians are white or not?
They are asians. Ergo: Not white. Or Black. Or Latino. They are asians. If they were white, we wouldn't call asian fetish yellow fever now, would we?
EDIT: I know you agree with me. But this was the last post of the argument I saw.
he actually does, i put the colour picker on the part of his skin not with any reflection from the sun and it was almost 0,0,0 rbg so is within the catagory of black.
you done with what ever stupid point you were failing to make? i really dont like talking to people who say things like black people are ugly.

you don't want to admit your privilege but there we go.

why do you quote someone that has ignored you? ^^
she has said light skin koreans are treated better than darker before... that is not the same as white privilege lol...

lol... because he doesnt know that the terms for skin color is pale, light or dark... he thinks everyone that is pale is white...
to highlight to readers her terrible personality, which im entitled to do, as i will do to you, i mean seriously calling black people ugly for being black is fucked up.
having privilege for having white skin, is white privilege. its in the name, the problem is you think white means race when as a socio-scientific terms it means what it literally means, white skin.
Bad personality, different expectations/relationship goals (marriage, kids, that stuff), drugs, lying, being bigoted, and bad hygiene.
As for some more opinionated things, we don't need to agree on everything. I just want mutual respect and understanding.
Edit: @Monster Hunter You're talking about colorism, not white privilege. You don't refer to Asian skin as white or colorism in Asia as white privilege, because the term has a specific social and historical context to discrimination in the West and European colonialism. I don't care if you find the posters you're arguing with to be racist or not, but they are right in that you are using the term wrong. You can't just change the generally accepted definition of a word at your convenience, or it loses all meaning.
