Ns can't really discern from hick white trash which is ubiquitous throughout impoverished rural areas north and south and even midwest and west for that matter and Southern Gentility that encompasses certain aspects of "redneck" culture while excluding others...for instance Southerners from Old money, educated or esteemed backgrounds enjoy the thrill of the hunt just as their ancestors have for centuries, does that make them redneck? I don't think so, keep in mind these same southerners that enjoy sweet tea, hunting, Civil war history, and fishing, also are members of Augusta National Country Club, send their children to the best prep schools and have more money and class and civility than most people on this site.
Just because someone is from the south, doesnt mean they are stupid, inbred, hicks. I would go as far to say the average upper middle class to wealthy southerner is alot more cultured and refined than your average rancher in Steamboat Springs or city dweller in Hartford or Rochester NY.
Most of my friends enjoy hunting, trucks, mudding, college football, but at the same time can dish out political rhetoric, come up with articulate arguments, and tell you which utensil to use with each course in a dinner, alot better than the average teenage punk on this website.
