It probably wasn't prompted by this thread, but by Scott's previous quotes about how he was, as a nerdy male, among the least privileged in society.
Possibly when zerogravitas says "It's hard to summarize, but he made a comment about how being a nerdy straight male was harder than being a woman or gay".
You(or GP) seem to be implying that all straight white males are nerdy, or that being nerdy has no effect on the hardship you face in life. Which one is it?
