In reply to the discussion: Male Privilege, helpfully explained by a white dude [View all]cinnabonbon
(860 posts)I am waiting for you to answer my question, however. The reason I asked is because our discussion is derailing from the topic, and I want to hear if it's useful continuing it.
In the US there's food insecurity, plus the perverse starvation of anorexia. It is fairly terrible, since there is food available but the person dies of starvation anyway. Malnutrition is also a problem.
For the record, I don't believe white feminism should engage in "white man's burden" behaviour in other countries, because then they would be exercising their white and class privilege. The women there knows their culture best, and knows best where they want to see improvement. (like Wangari Maathai, for example. A brilliant woman!) That leaves the white feminists to improve on their own cultures, of course. Like discussing male privilege. Like in this post.
