Please, it exists plenty. Thin privilege, not so much, unless one is talking about it in relation to the "privilege" of being attractive- which does exist more than people talk about, imo. Everyone treats people they find attractive better, it's why you very rarely see very attractive people doing badly.
White privilege in America, yeah, it does. There was that one guy who got more job offers when he said his name was Joe instead of Jose, cops nearly always treat you better. It's not massive, but it's there.
Male privilege, nah. Males and females have different societal advantages and disadvantages, which is why men occupy the highest and lowest rungs of society. The richest people are mostly men, the poorest people are mostly men, and obviously it's way more prevalent in countries that actually do have a patriarchal society.
People ignore the biggest privilege being WEALTH, though. If you're rich, all other privileges or disadvantages are practically null and void.
