Black male here taking a stand for white chicks. Why have white women been taking the heat when it's white men?
We talk about white privilege this and the era of anti-black atrocities from the 1500s through the 1970s but slavery was institutionalized and come up with by white government. Lest we not forget however that ism was going on and FEMALES were not allowed in governmental affairs. That includes white women. White women had no say in any of that. White males popularized it and what they say goes. White females had absolutely no say. White men decided it was ok and I'm sure being close-knit families some of their women wanted to stand by them and support them even though it was wrong but still some leeway needs to be given. White women couldn't even vote so they weren't the ones responsible for voting for slavery to be ok. White women don't have white privilege in many ways because of all the discrimination females receive. White women in the media are portrayed horribly: Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Rosie O'Donnell, etc. It's the white males that get this privilege. David Letterman cheated on his wife and wasn't given even half as bad a backlash as Tiger Woods. Hell, he was seen as the good guy because he came out about it just to rat someone who blackmailed him out. Joe Wilson who interrupted the president during an important congressional meeting wasn't given even half as bad of a backlash and didnt' receive all the slurring Kanye West did for interrupting a teenage girl during an award show. Although the media sends this message that white women are the prettiest, that they'll also have to be anorexic and never eat as well as suntan which damages white skin.
