“Aroace people aren’t straight but they still have straight privilege!”
Not being able to talk openly about my orientation without fear of ridicule isn’t “straight privilege”.
Not being able to mention my orientation without worry that it will impact my reputation as a professional or as a student is not “straight privilege”.
Not being able to talk about my orientation in front of most of my family without fear of them rejecting me isn’t “straight privilege”.
Not seeing any representation of people like me in the media isn’t “straight privilege”.
Not having any education that people like me exist isn’t “straight privilege”.
People telling you that you’re making your orientation up to be special or different isn’t “straight privilege”.
People being uncomfortable with you mentioning your orientation and telling you that no-one needs to know isn’t “straight privilege”.
Being told that your orientation isn’t real isn’t “straight privilege”.
Being told that your orientation is probably a symptom of some medical condition isn’t “straight privilege”.
People assuming things about your life and history based on your orientation isn’t “straight privilege”.
Your orientation being treated as a political stance or a lifestyle choice is not “straight privilege”.
No, aroace people are not systematically oppressed for our orientation. As far as the system cares we do not exist. Not existing, as far as most of society cares, is not “straight privilege”.
The only time I have “straight privilege” is when I don’t talk about my orientation. At all. The only time I have “straight privilege” is when I let people assume I am straight.
And frankly, having to be silent about my orientation to be respected by the straight majority, isn’t a privilege.
