What are your assumptions about the south?

[Lucy68]

As a deep southern Belle I have heard a few

[Andres77]

Born and raised in the North.

Moved to the South.

Polite. Gracious. Protective (general of any small community).

Bigger cities are full of the same amount of jerks as any other in the world.

Their history is not their fault. Holding on to bad traditions is also the bane of any society.

I'll stay in the south by choice.

The north is just as full of backward idiots as the south. It's just a different stink.

Ok, before I met you, I heard that you used to have slaves, that there's a lot of Black people there, that you're very religious, and that you're quite poor.

[Crafteroon]

Great cooking, troubled history. Mob mentality, very prejudiced. Trouble looking at their own mistakes, unwilling to admit they don't know how to fix things once the solution collides with their broken beliefs. They pride on their hospitality, but only as long as their guests don't stir their fragile identity. Blindly follow anyone who uses faith or fear of others to fill their own pockets. Worth visiting as long as you don't have to stay.

Don't question them about the ugly past. That was other people and stuff like that doesn't matter now.

God, guns, college football where guns & footbaw would be 1a & 1b but god is #1 overall cuz he loves both.

[2facedfa1ry]

conservative, own guns, cowboy hats/boots, trump stans, religious, very nice and friendly

[normalice]

It's hot so people want to live far away from each other, which makes them more conservative.

[Guardian45]

It's bloody HOT and humid. They grow my BEST fruit, the peach. They have some interesting way of speaking. Appear to be quite religious, and some would argue racist.

[exitseven]

The weather is hot and there are fewer liberals.

[andreasderjuengere]

It's full of ice and penguins :)

[maximumpower]

It's really cold all the way down there.
People do not live there b/c it's so cold.

[dinojames22]

That it's humid and the mosquitoes are the size of VW beetles..


And as someone who's lived in the south... both are true.

[SoftCliff]

Rednecks, racists, Trumpers, KKK

[Agape93]

Everything is deep fried and washed down with coke

[Fireguy17]

Hot women, great accent.
