[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly I doubt that if you consort with middle class people, you are familiar with many upper class people. I don’t mean that in a snobby way, it’s just the truth. So I doubt your data pool is significant. Alternatively, if you’re mostly around UC, then I think you can’t really opine on the MC.[/quote]

First, learn to read. OP is talking about UMC, not UC.

UMC and MC people interact all the time, and the line is fuzzy. Especially in a place like DC with very high COL, where many UMC people send their kids to school, live in gentrifying neighborhoods, etc. My neighborhood in DC has plenty of MC families (feds, school teachers, nurses, etc.) who live in houses bought before the neighborhood gentrified, or in condos. But it also has lots of UMC people (lawyers, doctors, consultants, political people, high level feds) who bought more recently.

We interact daily, and OP’s observation holds. The UMC people are more aloof and less friendly. They smile less. They can be friendly towards each other if they have an established relationship, but they are outwardly cold. MC people are friendlier and more open.[/quote]

I did read it, and OP stated that she felt both UC and MC people are friendly, but I seriously doubt that she has enough information about one group or the other to make an informed statement. If she is hanging around a lot of MC people, she does not have the same relationship with UC people, and vice versa. People generally stick to their social class. So I think her whole premise is flawed, because she is only having superficial interactions with at least one of these groups, and is therefore unqualified to really opine on the subject in an informed way.
