So, this whole Emma Watson sexy picture in Vanity Fair deal… it’s apparently a shit show for the feminist Ms. Watson. I don’t know why people are hating on her so much. She’s a great actress, articulate, intelligent, attractive, and famous. And she’s a feminist. And oh yeah, she’s white. Not like that should matter, but in this day and age, unless you belong to a victim class, your whiteness always gets in the way.

I actually think I know what the real problem is. Emma Watson may be a self-proclaimed feminist, but her victim status went poof after her magazine picture of her underboob went viral. There is one very good reason that people seem to be hating on her. Feminists are turning on her in droves. Nobody is taking her seriously. Is it because she sold out? Is it because she decided to objectify herself? I say maybe, but that’s not the real problem. Feminism has a new problem, and I think this new problem is going to hurt third-wave feminists more than they realize…

The problem is called sexual privilege.

What is this privilege you may ask? Well, modern feminists think privilege is connected to something inherit to a class that the class does not necessarily observe or feel consciously, but benefits from unconsciously, and as a by-product oppressed another class of individuals. Modern feminists and victim majority groups slather the titles of “white privilege”, “male privilege”, “cis white male privilege” everywhere, in many instances to silence reasonable or unreasonable discussions around a multitude of topics that the victim classes find problematic or oppressive.

Sexual privilege is privilege that is obtained through using sexuality to obtain power over another class of person and ultimately exploits them in some way. In the case of Emma Watson and her underboob, she obtains power over anyone who finds her sexually desirable, and oppresses anyone who would want to be as sexually desirable as her, but unfortunately isn’t.

She doesn’t necessarily consciously seek this power, it’s just her privilege as a sexually appealing individual that oppresses men and women who find her attractive. They are led to feel substandard about their own sexual expression and attractiveness, and either desire her sexually, subconsciously want to be her, or find that they can never live up to her standard so they lose out on sexual opportunities with other people who actually find Ms. Watson more attractive and the ideal for pursuit.

Emma Watson will benefit from her “victims” buying movie tickets to see her play her role in the live action film “Beauty and the Beast” produced by Disney. She exploits her fans through their desire. She doesn’t ask for this. She doesn’t even realize she has this effect on people. She just thinks she’s expressing herself and representing herself as a feminist model, when she’s in fact using her sexual privilege to oppress the rest of us less sexually desirable people.

Well Ms. Watson. Check you sexual privilege, because anyone else out there who even is remotely sexy has to check their sexual privilege too. After all, we wouldn’t want the world to be oppressed by other sexually privileged people.
