I’d just love to understand why people are so judgemental. My experience has always been that people in my life and hometown are kind and polite, so would love some honest feedback about what people think here about southern women and how I can appear more approachable while staying true to myself.
I am not DC native, transplant from Europe. I LOVE people from south. They, primarily, are very well educated, well read, kind, less mental issues compared to people from North East, less arrogant. Please, stay true to who you are. It is such a pleasant contrast to meet people like you.
Thank you!
OMG and you wonder why people don't like you when you all generalize about people from other regions in this way. FFS. So oblivious to your own hypocrisy.
What's wrong with YOU? As if DCUM posters don't generalize about southerners and the south all the time!
Why waste time generalizing about southerners? They mainly stay in the south and never move so how can they even be bothering you?
They think it’s a positive thing to say they are 5th generation blah blah southern or Texan city and they’re still there. Even bragging about how they’ll only ever live there. Watching high school football every Friday night with the same people as the last few decades.
It’s truly bizarre and myopic.
And I don’t care what overpriced luxury vacation they went on, because they return and have nothing of depth or insightful to say about it.

Just want the women in Landman and Hunting Wives. You’ll figure it out.

Most of my friends here in DC are kind people who are open to new experiences and ideas. They don't judge people based on appearances. They are happy to use public pools.
Agree. People with good judgment don’t have a problem meeting new and different people and figuring them out themselves. They don’t need to rely on stereotypes, after all 5-10 min conversation they’ll know a lot.

The generalizations about the south are ignorant and misguided. The generalizations about DC are true.

Do none of you realize that when you make these sorts of generalizations about northerners or DC you are just as bad?
This whole thread is stupid.

I find that most people genuinely don't care where you are from, what's between your legs, the color of your skin, who or what you may or may not worship or any other irrelevant factor that doesn't dictate the character and quality of their fellow human being. If you're a kind and decent person, don't hide yourself.

Florida is definitely not in the “south”. Just a different culture.
Ok. California isn't in the west, and Maine isn't in the north? Just exactly where do you think Florida is located?

Guess you think NYC is in Italy.

I am not DC native, transplant from Europe. I LOVE people from south. They, primarily, are very well educated, well read, kind, less mental issues compared to people from North East, less arrogant. Please, stay true to who you are. It is such a pleasant contrast to meet people like you.
Also a European transplant. And I agree 100 percent. Southern people tend to be kinder, more humane, more interesting, more down to Earth. Also more curious and straightforward. I always like people who are really southern.
Please don't change a thing to "adapt."
The stereotypes are insane in this thread. Some people are good, and some people suck in every state and DC, from every income level, from every background.
Stop with this nonsense.
The Europeans can't see through the phony southern charm. They think "Bless your heart" means bless your heart. LOL.
For most of the Europeans, DC is south. To me they are appear to be less educated, in par to southern European countries.

This is typical uneducated American response.
