I grew up in a small town of 2000 sure. I have a VERY faint accent. (b/c I have taken voice classes) I live in one of the largest cities in the USA. However, from time to time I hear "Wow you are so country". Or they are shocked when I say somethinng and I get "I thought you were country, I didnt know that about you".
You should also know I went to a top ranked University, I am a professional, and I am getting my MBA at another.
Just this week I had a friend over, we were hanging out, and she was going through my photo albums. She made this comment "OMG, You have so many friends of different ethnicities, did you date any of these Guys?" To which I replied "Yes" And she said "But I thought you were so country" I was shocked! I said," What? Do I look racist?"
Please, give me your definition of "country" b/c I dont think that of myself at all (I think I carry myself with a lot of sophistication). Have you ever called somone that? Should I be insulted when people say this?
