[quote=Anonymous]I think the closest other common archetype is "new england yankee" at least for the older preps, like the older Bush's or kennedy's: Thrift, humility, stoicism, prudence, charity and some version of a private faith. Clothing used to be valued for quality, classic design, some modesty and practicality I think a lot of it was a carryover from the Puritans, at least for the wasps we are talking about here....bill clinton and jimmy carter were wasps too, but that's not what we are talking about right? We are talking about a northeastern brand of wasp but the values it had were more linked to the grandparents of most of the readers here. I second the linger list for a modern view of wasp. Modern waspdom includes greater diversity in all areas, clothes, hsir, race, [/quote]
