9 Things White People Never Have to Think About, Ranked

9. Getting followed around in stores

Hey, we're just trying to buy an iPhone charging cable, not executing an Ocean's Eleven-style heist at Dollar Tree.

8. Getting profiled outside of stores

If only people got left alone outside of the retail environment. But really, it happens everywhere.

7. Getting unwanted hair attention at work

6. Whether they have an advantage

5. Being wrongly accused of anything

And if the accusation sticks, a conviction is way more likely if you're not white.

4. Targeted racial hate crimes

Especially if you live in a big city, you're more likely to get attacked as a racial minority.

3. Inadvertently playing into stereotypes

In everything from choosing what to eat in front of others to naming your kid, not having to second guess your own actions to avoid getting pigeonholed is a luxury.

2. Hearing, "So, where are you from… originally?"
