my `` social identity scorecard '' looks like this : i am raised jewish ( a minority in the usa during my upbringing ) ; i am a practicing buddhist ( a minority almost everywhere around the globe ) ; i spend most of my adult life partially disabled ( car accident in my last year of high school leaves me with an impaired leg ) ; i am female ( an oppressed majority across the globe ) ; i am an active bisexual ( have primary relationships with both men and women , but not usually simultaneously ) ; i am caucasian ( still a majority in the usa , and a powerful ethnicity in the world in 2012 ) ; i am extremely well-educated ; and , even when unemployed , i am primarily middle-class .
