[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter goes to Villanova and yes I would say its quite waspy. Just look at Wayne, its super duper waspy. The people, the stores the taste level...its beautiful but a little stuffy for me personally any my daughter who is Italian always talks about it being waspier lately...not sure how it compares to other schools though but I can say the area (Main Line) is definitely very waspy.[/quote] Yes, it may be preppy, but WASP stands for white Anglo-Saxon PROTESTANT. Which means that it does not include Catholics. Sorry! [/quote] Irish Catholics are WASP-wannabes. Since most WASPs have become very non-religious, the term WASP is becoming synonymous with "uber preppy" and elitist. Generally old money, which now encompasses some Jewish families as well. If you live in Chevy Chase village you are probably WASPY regardless of where you go to church or temple. [/quote]
