social identities

In recent readings, there seems to be a combination of race and gender under social identities. What about the other social identities? Social identities that include race, gender, sex, age, class mobility, religion ... It really comes down to which side is more privileged and which sides are being oppressed. A person isn't just a women, but also Asian-American (race), middle-aged, working poor-class, non-handicapped, homosexual (sex).
