Every race has privileges and benefits that come along with being that race, along with negative affects too. Its just that whites have the most privileges out of any other race.

Whites are the majority, so it's only natural that they have more privilege.

Probably because only in wages do Asians have more success. How many Asians are in office? Represented non stereotypically in media?


How many Asians are running for office and not being elected? It's not really an issue of privilege or inequality if the group self-selects out of that area.

To people that think "white privilege" begins and ends at wealth disparity, Asians doing well does put a huge hole in that theory.

Good thing that's not all white privilege is.

And even in the business world, Asians are usually "just workers." How many are CEOs or in leadership positions in Western companies? They are frequently passed over for promotion in comparison to whites.


Except that this isn't true. Asians are 5.6% of the U.S. population but make up 14% of the CEO roles in the tech industry and 19% of management roles in general. Asians also make up 13% of U.S. physicians.

You have to clarify what you mean by "Asian". Does that include everyone from the continent of Asia or just East Asians? Because in western media, television and the porn industry, Asian only applies to East Asians.

Asians are stereotyped as being good in tech and medical industries but what about finance, sports, entertainment, real estate, services, etc.


Don't have the numbers, but Asians are definitely over-represented in finance too. They don't tend to go into sports and entertainment as much in the U.S., so it's hard to claim discrimination or bias for the decisions they willingly make.

Well, if you are going to include South Asians among the "Asian diaspora" then I think you should also include West Asian (Arabs, Israelis, Syrians, Lebanese) as well.

All these labels are actually pretty outdated and narrow-minded categories that are based on stereotypes.

Every race has privilege. In America whites are the majority, so they have more privilege than other races. Why is that hard to understand?
