Who do you think has the better societal advantage? A black man, because he's a man? Or a white woman, because she's white? This conversation came up after watching an episode of "Orange is the New Black," in which the heterosexual, Caucasian, female executive assistant to the warden character says with envy: "God, I wish I was a man."

When white women earn more than black men on average..... I would say the opposite.

Oh? Then I guess this

what a strange competition.

personally, i don't want to answer the question yet, since i don't have enough information

i also don't have any experience with the issue, since i'm neither a black man nor a white woman

but im really interested to see the opinions in this thread

So basically white privilege vs. men privilege?

White privileged women have better advantages, although, women are still viewed as inferior to men. Both face adversities.

A white woman could steal a car and get help from passers by

a black man is an instant angry mob

I remembered having this conversation with a black friend of mine, and she told me she believed that sexism affected her the most, she said how people chose a black man as president before a white woman.

I really can't say though, I am neither. It probably depends on the context.

No.

Being white always has the greater advantage. Black men are the literal bottom of the barrel in the society. Them being men actually makes it even WORSE for them in comparison to black women.

White women make more money.

As a black man, I don't really feel that I have the bigger advantage. I'll go with the privileged white woman.

White women have the better societal advantage

Can you reference your research to this conclusion. thank you. Also i think the black man has an advantage if he's educated over a white educated woman.

On what planet?

muh privilege

A white women, hands down.

an interesting perspective, thanks for sharing

but sis, what do you think about companies that look towards diversifying their workforce? as in, they hire black people over white people, just for the sake of hiring black people. in that sense, could you say that a black man has a bigger advantage than a white woman?

this is just a thought i'd appreciate to see your perspective on it
