Are there middle classes then? How many? How are they classified?

I live in what I would call a predominantly middle class area. Okay you get snobbery anywhere and everywhere but what irritates me, is the people who think they're superior just because they have more money.

Money which was made in the property boom, through cheap oil and exploitation.

Today I have had to endure racist comments, comments about single mothers.

Racist comments and derogatory comments about single mothers isn't snobbery y'know? It's universally shitty behaviour.

Racism is most definitely no respecter of class. Really.

Sorry that you have had some shitty people to deal with today.

What's your point? Having a go at the middle class seems pretty snobby to me.

disco - I have an Asian friend that lives in East London. I don't think that he will agree with you about racism being a MC thing :)

It is ironic isn't it, that I am generalising about middle class people. However they are hardly a marginalised group are they Hmm

Its nothing to with being middle class. Its to do with being a twat. And there are loads of tests regardless of class.

But you do get the irony of your posts, don't you?

This thread is just snobbery and based wholly on opinions you've got from a few people, don't tar everyone with the same brush, you're no better than those 'middle classes' who pass judgment at you.

I agree actually. But I'm probably a culprit these days. I never used to be.

I would swank straight past you with my designer handbag, OP.
Being MC rocks.

Not really. fFs OP, stop discriminating against us Middle classes. Once you see past our Land and Range Rovers we are really quite nice Smile and not that different to you.

Ffs OP...glad the irony hasn't totally gone over your head.

By the way...racism isn't "snobbery" it's racism.

Middle class women can be single mothers too...Shock

It's not middle class snobbery. It's just knowing how to behave in public, in private, in school, walking along the street.

When people who know how to behave - yes etiquette - they will notice those who do not conform to their standards and think they are not as good as they are.

You are certainly BU. You should know your place and keep to it.
In fact I'm going to write to the Daily Mail about this!
