- Inherited a large sum of money from his rich family
- Was educated in the best schools
- Grew into a successful capitalist, making most of his money developing weapons for the United States
- Attends wild parties and sleeps with mostly white women
- While his best friend is black, the rest of his inner-circle is white
- Gleefully thumbs his nose at United States government authority. Is celebrated as a hero by most.
- Hangs out with his super cool friends. They are all white for the first movie and 7/8 (no, Nick Fury is not an Avenger)
I love Tony Stark. You probably love Tony Stark. Tony Stark is white male wish fulfillment.
(Don't even get me started on Steve Rogers...)
