[h=1]'It should not be ignored!' Rich girl who complained about poor people furious with press coverage... because it failed to highlight the fact that she's GAY[/h]
A New York-based student who earned widespread criticism and notoriety earlier this year when she wrote an essay demanding that poor people should stop making her feel bad because she's rich has posted a follow-up article in which she complaints that the media coverage of her outburst failed to make an issue of her sexuality.
Rachel Sacks, who is enrolled in a $40,000-a-year writing program at a New York liberal arts school, posted her latest musings – entitled They Could Find My House But They Couldn't Find Out I Was Gay - on Monday on Thought Catalog.
Sacks writes that despite her sexuality not being relevant to her previous essay about how how a cashier at a grocery store close to her affluent West Village apartment was unfriendly and frowned at her because she was carrying a large shopping bag from the high-end designer Mulberry, she was still upset with the media for not pointing it out in media coverage she received at the time.
‘I have Pride Flags hanging in the windows of my apartment,’ protests Sacks. ‘My Facebook account also says “interested in women”. Reporters were able to find my home on Google Earth yet they were unable to see my sexuality blatantly listed for the public to see? It doesn’t add up.’
It was October when Sacks first gained notoriety after she posted a controversial essay on the same website entitled I’m Not Going To Pretend That I’m Poor To Be Accepted By You.
In that article Sacks blogged: 'I am sorry that I was born into great financial circumstances and my father likes to provide for me. I am sorry I don’t have to go to a state school to save my parents money. What do you want from me?'
In the media firestorm that followed Sacks, 20, was unrepentant over her ideas and ranted to the Mail Online that she was undeserving of the attention because she is a 'spoiled brat who masturbates too much'.
In her latest essay, Sacks admits that her sexuality has nothing to do with her gained her notoriety in the first place. ‘While my sexuality is irrelevant to the topic of my article, it still is part of who I am and should not be ignored,’ she admits. According to Sacks, she believes her sexuality was ignored because ‘it would look tacky to vilify me in the press in regards to my sexuality.’
‘Non normative sexuality has to be avoided completely as a topic of discussion because of all of the tragedies that have resulted from kids being bullied for being gay.’
