Privilege rarely requires a modifier. If you embody the default image, you have the privilege in the group described/imagined.
Consider:
“It’s time we had a woman president” vs. “It’s time we had a black woman president.”
“I belong to a dance troupe” vs. “I belong to a wheelchair dance troupe.”
“It was a male driver” vs. “It was a Hispanic male driver.”
“Marriage” vs. “Gay marriage.”
“A cabaret” vs. “A fat cabaret.”
Note: sometimes the original wording disappears within the modification. For instance, Chub Chaser and Fat Admirer modify people who are attracted to a certain body type, but there is no special designation for someone who seeks out thinner people. If you’re unmodified, check your privilege.
