[quote=Anonymous]This came up in the most recent episode of the Maintenance Phase podcast, on Rachel Hollis (the "Girl, Wash Your Face" lady). She is from California but inexplicably speaks with a southern accent and refers to herself as southern when she gives talks (and maybe in her books, too). She seems grating on about 40 different levels, but this was the detail that really pushed me over the edge. It's so weird! It is no different, really, than feigning a British accent or something. OP, your husband is being ridiculous. And possibly damaging -- stuff like this could really mess up your kids because he's encourage them to be fake just to stand out and be different. That's such an awful message to send to kids who need to feel accepted and loved for who they are. The fact that he does it to you, too, is crazy. He should got to therapy, and you should absolutely refuse to play along.[/quote]
