There is no such thing as a classless person. Anyone who has to work for someone else to survive is working-class. Intersectional feminism has a great deal of trouble dealing with economic class because intersectionality was designed to address social identities like race and gender. But the working and owning classes are economic categories that include people of all social identities. People of a social identity want respect for that identity, but poor people do not want to be respected for being poor—they want an end to poverty.
