According to articles the University of Oregon suggests students should read, clothes that fit are an example of "cis privilege" and, to "dismantle" whiteness and "cis privilege," capitalism should be "disrupted."
The University of Oregon has a separate site for their libraries. Included in this separate site are "research guides" to help students understand topics that the university has deemed important. One such research guide is "Transgender Studies & Cisgender Privilege."
The research guide then direct students to read a checklist of "cisgender privileges," saying, "The following web resources offer primers on what cisgender privilege means, and how to recognize & evaluate your own privileges."
Included on the list are: "6. Clothing works for me, more or less. I am a size and shape for which clothes I feel comfortable wearing are commonly made" and "23. My potential lovers expect my genitals to look roughly similar to the way they do, and have accepted that before coming to bed with me."
Another list that outlines "cisprivilege [sic]" claims that people use trans-gendered people as "a scapegoat for their own unresolved gender issues."
Other resources that the University of Oregon provides for their students is an article from "Feminist Campus" that outlines "7 Ways You Can Use Your Cisgender Privilege for Good."
Feminist Campus declares that people can "start dismantling oppressive systems," like "cis privilege" and "whiteness."
The article claims that "living in a society that is steeped in capitalism is hard." One of the best ways to help transgendered people, it says, is to "Disrupt capitalism and share what you may have to help your kindred!"
It is my hometown. It used to be a great town until the Californians and NYers took it over.
There is a hell, and we are already there.
All Gingers are born without souls
I wish my life were so easy and carefree I had time to sit around and invent things to be offended over.
Easy to believe. We now live in Albany, OR, which is a comparatively conservative town near Oregon State University which is science and engineering oriented and much calmer.
Disrupt capitalism and share what you may have...
I was thinking they meant equal opportunity unisex clothing such as his and her burqas.
This is the 'intellectual' equivalent of "Hey Bubba, hold muh beer & watch this!"
What could possibly go wrong?

The thing to remember about the Oregon coast communities is that most were destroyed by environmental regulations.
Lots of plus-sized women have the same problem. I’d say they weren’t their own interest group, but the occasional cries against “lookism” (bias toward the pretty) and SJWs attacking women who lost a lot of weight, are very pretty or got into shape weeks after having a baby suggest they are trying to become a protected class.
Ya think? Transgender girl says she is rejected by straight guys for ‘having male parts’ - http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/transgender-girl-says-rejected-straight-6857022
All of western Oregon had their main rural area employment devastated by the spotted owl nonsense and other environmental regulations. The vast majority of timber workers lost their jobs. Some moved away and some collapsed into a welfare/meth culture.
These people are so stupid they don’t qualify as homo sapien. They should be forcefully sterilized.
Wow, what sickness. What unbelievable deep levels of sick diseased twisted dementia.
Weyerhaeuser came out and admitted that mechanization was a huge part of lost timber jobs. Closing the national forests to logging put huge pressure on other timberlands. Trees are harvested at about 37 years of age. Commercial fishing is also under attack.
