I'm not sure if this takes us down a well traveled road, I'm guessing it does.

I've benefitted from discrimination all my life. As a 6' 2" white male, I get the positives (see: Blink, by Malcolm Gladwell, the chapter on the "warren harding error"), and I get the absence of the negatives (at airports, driving, walking downtown, etc).

Of the two, the abscence of negatives is probably better for my day to day life. The positives are better for my long term success.
