[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm French. Some of my relatives, when I was a child, had a full-time housekeeper, who oversaw maids coming on certain days, laundry, food, and managed deliveries, repairmen, etc. My mother grew up with a full staff, not quite Downton Abbey (missing the butler and footmen), but with several housemaids, a cook, her kitchen helpers, someone to wait at table, and outdoor people for the gardens, farm and hunting pack/stable.

Which French sociologist? The French intellectual "elite" is a quirky bunch of people. France in general doesn't like wealthy people. In France, you use your wealth discreetly and tastefully. Otherwise it's heads on pikes all over again :-)

Virtually all French sociologists who write on the upper class are left wing outsiders.[/quote]
