Opposite to thin privilege, fat privilege is privileges people earn for being obese.
These privileges include but are not limited to: not blacking out when standing up, not having to ask for a box every time when eating at a restaurant, not having to poke holes in belts to make them fit/being able to shop for belts easily, and not as likely to be sexually objectified as intensely as thin people.

amanda, who is thin- “I have been getting stared at by this creepy old man all night, he tried to grope me earlier. I have to have security walk me to my car.”
tiffany, who is fat- “just don’t mind him, you will be fine. He doesn’t care.”
Tiffany does not understand what Amanda is dealing with, because she has fat privilege.
