Thin privilege is being able to take an Anthropology class without being harmed by comments like “The fat acceptance movement is a HUGE thing on the internet. Well, there aren’t that many people in it, but they are HUGE. There isn’t much *movement* though…” And even more horribly, “If someone tries to tell you that the fat face institutionalized oppression like racism or sexism, you roll that porker down a fucking hill.”

This is not meant to be used by the oppressors as a BINGO card:

In one small paragraph, they’ve committed acts of subtle bias, prejudice and bigotry, and violence (threats count). And all of this because they’re trying to prove that fat people aren’t oppressed? Good job.
