If you think being pretty is a privilege, how about you having access to internet and being able to write in English, there are people who don't have those privileges?
Also in societies like ours which are hierarchal, people treat rich people differently. Even in my experience, while I was interning somewhere in my first year, for some reason the boss thought I was rich and treated me nicely. I was there just for a month so I don't have enough experience. I'd like to hear ur thoughts on this too.
This post is not meant to demean anyone or cry about how the world is unfair. I am a student and I am just curious of how things work irl, so pls keep the discussion light :)
