Is it "Pretty Privilege" or Just Racism?

Episode 2
The concept of "pretty privilege" is an interesting one for me. On one hand, I don't doubt it's existence and frankly, I've benefited from it. However, quite frequently. when I unpack what's considered attractive in the United States, it seems hard to differentiate it from other isms like racism, fatphobia and ableism. So I question if it is truly a "privilege" at all, but an embodiment of other isms.
