I'm a straight, white man, so according to SJW's, I'm automatically the most privileged person there could possibly be.

Let's answer the questions:

If your parents worked nights and weekends to support your family, take one step back. Back one step.
If you are able to move through the world without fear of sexual assault, take one step forward. Been sexually assaulted a few times, so staying put.
If you can show affection for your romantic partner in public without fear of ridicule or violence, take one step forward. Live in a conservative town, so I can't. Staying put.
If you have ever been diagnosed as having a physical or mental illness/disability, take one step back. Clinical depression that caused a suicide attempt. Back one steps, total two steps back.
If the primary language spoken in your household growing up was not english, take one step back. Staying put. Two steps back total.
If you came from a supportive family environment take one step forward. Too poor for that. Staying put, two steps back.
If you have ever tried to change your speech or mannerisms to gain credibility, take one step back. I'm pretty sure EVERYONE has done this multiple times throughout their life. One step back, totalling 3.
If you can go anywhere in the country, and easily find the kinds of hair products you need and/or cosmetics that match your skin color, take one step forward. Someone's never been to a Walmart. Literally everyone in America can take a step forward unless they live in the middle of nowhere. One step forward, totalling two steps back.
If you were embarrassed about your clothes or house while growing up, take one step back. One step back, totalling three.
If you can make mistakes and not have people attribute your behavior to flaws in your racial/gender group, take one step forward. I'm a white person on CE, so staying put. Three steps back.
If you can legally marry the person you love, regardless of where you live, take one step forward. Staying put, because it takes more than just love to be able to marry someone. Three steps back.
If you were born in the United States, take one step forward. This argument pretty much kills the SJW privilege argument, because, as conservatives point out often, it isn't about color or sexuality - it's about money, and Americans are better off than any other nation in the world. One step forward, totalling two steps back.
If you or your parents have ever gone through a divorce, take one step back. Again, not sure the point here, since half of all marriages end in divorce. Back one step, totalling three.
If you felt like you had adequate access to healthy food growing up, take one step forward Define access. The grocery store in town sold it, just like every fucking grocery store in America, but my parents didn't often choose it for a variety of reasons, most of them being their own poor decision-making. Staying put, back three steps.
If you are reasonably sure you would be hired for a job based on your ability and qualifications, take one step forward. The only reason people aren't is because they're fed bullshit about racism that doesn't exist. Stepping forward, two steps back total.
If you would never think twice about calling the police when trouble occurs, take one step forward. As a white person, I'm the most likely to die at the hands of a cop, so I'm staying the fuck put. Two steps back.
If you can see a doctor whenever you feel the need, take one step forward. Thanks to Obamacare, I haven't been able to see a doctor in years. Staying put, two steps back.
