It sounds as though when you see "southern," you only hear "white southern."

I'm not saying you're the only one on this thread who does that, but it's pretty telling.

Southern doesn’t equal Mormon, at all.

Does your BFF know you think these things? Oh no, meal trains when someone is sick or dies?! Baby showers! How nasty?!

DP here. Actually Mormon wives and white Southern wives have a lot in common. Big emphasis on homemaking and being SAHM’s, having at least 3 kids, dressing them in matching or cutesy clothes, and in general just having their entire identify being motherhood and their children.

That does not describe the average Richmond mother, at all. GMAFB.

-Born and raised in Richmond

Well I was born and raised in Richmond too and that describes every wife/mother I know who still lives here. Sure a couple of them teach preschool 3 mornings a week or sell some sort of MLM, but the rest is absolutely accurate. Also post endless on social media about motherhood. 3 kids minimum.

Sure. Every woman you know who still lives there is a SAHM? All of them?

Not the ones I know, or my siblings or my mother or my grandmother. So I guess we cancel each other out. I call troll.

I'm not a troll. Maybe your family isn't very well off? UMC married women in Richmond either don't work or have hobby jobs or work very part time. Especially the ones who come from families who have been there a very long time.

You're definitely a troll.

Nope. But you are definitely not from Richmond.

13 yr senior of St C but ok.

None of my college friends or acquaintances from St. C have real jobs. Not one. Some have hobby jobs.

Total lie. Did you actually go to St. Catherine's? It sounds like you didn't. How many college friends or acquaintances do you know from St. Catherine's?

I went there, so did my sisters. The school seriously helped nurture me and help me get into a highly coveted university that is often discussed on DCUM . The school is hard core into professional networking for their alumnae, celebrating professional achievements of their many esteemed graduates. They have a networking app, regular events all over the world (not fundraising, but networking). They have helped me several times in my career and I have in turn helped younger alumnae. It is a phenomenal school for girls. I am very proud to be a graduate and you have some real weird agenda against it.

It also instilled in me a respect for people's choices. If someone wants to have a hobby job, so what. If someone is middle class, also so what. It's not against the law to be middle class or to be rich or to decide you would rather have a less stressful job or no job at all. You sound like a huge snob and bigot.

Here is their alumnae page (the photo at the top is from the most recent Career Day). I wish there was a school like this in DMV for my daughters or that St. Catherine's went back to accepting borders.

i love a St. Catherine's alumna lecturing me about snobbery. Which CCV clubhouse did you hold your wedding reception at?

Bless your heart. Something serious must have happened for you to have so much resentment.

Please. The CCV/St. C crowd looks down their nose at the rest of Richmond and always has. Don’t bother denying it. This is well known in Richmond by the rest of us.
