"Is have a high IQ a privilege? Low IQ?"
That one is complicated. IQ seems to come with some positives and some negatives. Really smart people tend to seem socially inept or tortured by overthinking. In general though, probably. If you go inter-species, then 100%. The way homosapiens have used our intelligence to turn animals into commodities is a pretty horrible example of that.
"Is being tall a privilege?"
Yes, physical size is a big part of male privilege in my estimation. This also tends to make someone more attractive.
"Is having full head of hair throughout your life a privilege?"
If it makes someone more attractive, it would work towards pretty privilege.
"Is being healthy and largely resistant to disease a privilege?"
Omg, yes. I wrote something about this specifically years ago, "Discrimination Against the Unhealthy," but it's in my book, "Flower Garden."
This is a great example actually because being healthy is treated as the norm, so people who naturally are not are often treated as weak or dramatic because of it. There are many examples where people are blamed for it.
"Is being a shorter guy a privilege? It is in gymnastics!
Is having fast twitch muscles a privilege? It is for running."
Well, see how you had to add a context? It's probably going to have less ramifications if it's context-specific instead of something that applies basically all the time, like pretty privilege or wealth privilege or white privilege.
"Is having perfect eye sight a privilege?"
Relative being blind? 100%. Relative just slightly less perfect sight? Not much as the difference is slight.
"Is being str8 a privilege? Being LGBTQ a privilege?"
Typically aligning with the majority comes with privileges. Obviously, some LGBTQ folks have been given a very rough time historically as well as today. So yes, being straight is definitely a privilege.
"Is growing up in a healthy functioning family a privilege?"
Definitely! It's totally beyond a person's control whether or not they grow up in such a place, and to not to, affects them negatively throughout the entirety of their life (according to studies), and those who grew up differently will never understand what it's like. 100% another blinding privilege.
"Is finding oil or gold on your land a privilege?
Is owning stick in Microsoft before it was adopted by IBM a privilege?"
I guess these can speak to wealth privilege, depending on quantity of the commodity or stock.
"Is me being the son of parents who immigrated from Denmark a privilege? I was an outcast in my school that was all Germans.
Is being just a “normal” person a privilege?"
Again, aligning with the majority, for obvious reasons, tends to come with its advantages.
"Yes, in general Black people are less well off and face systemic racism in many places.
Black wallstreet was created when racism was much more prevalent! How did they achieve it?

Stop with constantly beating the dead horse that life is not fair. Focus on rebuilding every Black community into Black wallstreet!"
You're apparently from Denmark and were an outcast in a school that was all Germans. From 20 feet away, you can't even tell the difference between someone who is from one place or the other. Now imagine how it is when your skin is a different color, and you're similarly outnumbered, and receiving hate for that, and a history of systemic oppression has left you on the opposite side of a massive power imbalance.
Also, we've had a Black president, a Black woman VP, Black Supreme Court justices and legislators, there are Black surgeons and CEOs, Black moguls and millionaires. Black people are doing their thing despite the headwinds, so you don't need to come in and try to rally an entire demographic.
But is it harder to run the race with a weight tied to your leg? Absolutely. That's something that people without the weight will never really understand. And just to be clear, I'm among them. I'm a straight, white-passing male. But it's so painfully obvious to anyone who stops to think about it how things are unfair.
And if, for whatever reason, you can't understand privilege as a function of race/ethnicity, then you can just look at it as a function of wealth. Does the son of a billionaire have access to more opportunities than the son of someone who's living in poverty? Of course, right? Well, the average Black household has 1/10th the wealth of the average white household, so maybe you can comprehend it by that handle.
