I'm a fairly tall good looking dude and I can't help but shake the feeling I have "pretty privilege"- as it we're.
Food for my morning thought I guess.

As a man, I think it's more subtle and difficult to pick up on, for me anyway. But I've been doing the gym for almost a decade and it shows. I've got blond hair and blue eyes and a strong jaw. Once I started dating I was basically never single for longer than a few months. And so, on some level I know I'm doing alright for myself and I'm sure that gives me a privilege that others don't have. Like others have said, I'm not a model (I have a friend that's a model and an amateur bodybuilder, I know what truly good looking guys look like haha), but I've got pretty privilege, I think.
But I can't really give like concrete examples, outside of how blessed my dating life has been obviously, of how some time I noticed I got something just because of my looks. It's like trying to have a fish explain how water affects their life, it's just always been around and you don't think about it. But I know, from reading theory and what not, this world is built for cis het white guys like me, and it's even better if you're easy on the eyes, and I have benefited enormously from that. So academically, I know the water gives me oxygen, gives me a medium through which I move and benefits me, but hell if I could ever truly expand on that.
Sounds about right. But isn't blonde hair and blue eyes usually seen as more desirable on women and dark hair better on men?
Excellent response though
I think you're right, tall, dark and handsome is a cliche for a reason. I guess this why my friend is the model!
I was just teasing you anyways lol. I appreciate you participating and giving input.
