Aaargh. Wading into it: I'm grateful for my "white privilege". I wish everyone had it.

I am saying this not in anger, but just as a simple expression of a thought that many people here share - and have expressed to you in one way or another.

Would you please stop posting on this site on threads about white privilege?

As a white person, I and others find it embarrassing to see your posts, so I am asking you as nicely as I can to please stop posting your concerns about the two-word phrase "white privilege."

I hope you will see the sincerity in my request.

It is borne from weeks of seeing others, males females, blacks, whites...in what is, really, the overwhelming response to you in regard to this issue when others try to explain the problem you create by a seeming inability to understand why your posts are offensive to many people - both white people and people of color.

You have told people who have PhDs in a field that they don't understand a topic but you do - while the truth is that you apparently don't. When others have asked you to provide some valid response from those within a field, your response has been that you don't need any because you are 23 and wise beyond your years.

Others beg to differ with your subjective understanding.

Thank you in advance for your consideration toward others here.
