This is pretty much the longest ongoing trolling effort in existence.

Well, that's sartorially normative, isn't it? Check your privilege.

Yes I suppose it is. I guess I should say it the other way. I'm impressed with the long-botheredness of people in power regardless of the intent of the people wearing the fashion. Most of the time parents, clergy, etc give up after a decade or two and accept something as normal.

Do I get a receipt?

More nearly seriously, am I supposed to check my privilege the way I might check my fly, or check it the way I might check my raincoat or my baggage?
