Southern ?

[Southern37]

I'm sorry, but I just have to disagree that people who are raised in the south are somehow more hospitable, or have these ingrained superior social graces, it is just a myth. They do have a different way of life, granted, but then again, what's to say that their way is the better way? Besides that, I have met southerners who were just plain assholes, and I have met people from my own hometown who are just plain assholes. I guess my point is that people relate to others the way the were taught to, be they from Mississippi, Ohio, Minnesota, South Carolina, or any other state, region, or country. But if you feel you need to hold on to these ideals to make yourself feel better, more power to you...


PS this is not directed at anyone in particular so please take no offense...I am just stating my opinions, based on my own life's experiences.

No you don't have to be raised in the South to be hospitable, have superior social graces or just posess good manners. But for some reason they are all in greater abundance in the South. I as well have been all over this country and there is absolutley no doubt that other regions (some more than others) place much less importance on these social graces than others. Trust me it is no myth, as I assume you havent spent much time down here.


There are quite a few assholes down here..just like anywhere..hell i am one!

I don't think we hang on to these ideals to make ourselves feel better... I think we hang on to them because it makes the world a better place...really it does.
