What's the difference between a redneck, hillbilly and a hick!?

Answer 1

A redneck starts trouble because they don't like someone's looks, or just because. A hillbilly stays at home in the sticks as much as they can. A hick just doesn't know about city ways.

Answer 2

Hmm, I'd say hicks are the cow milkin' overall wearing' field plowin' people who live in the middle of nowhere, rednecks are the type of people that hunt, drive huge trucks, go mudding, etc. and Hillbillies are the ones who live up in the Appalacians isolated from society and have very little education and technology. That's just what I associate with the words though

Answer 3

Actually a Hillbilly is a Michigan farmer (potato farmer I believe). A Redneck is a pale face white white guy that works on the farm and gets a "redneck " from having his head down and his neck gets sunburned.

A Hick? oh wait I know...that's the region where the tooth brush was invented. Because if they'd had more than one tooth it would have been called a teeth brush.

Answer 4

Rednecks are in the southern states. Hillbillies are in Arkansas, TN, and the Dakotas. Hicks are in the northern states. They are the same people - just named differently geographically.

Answer 5

The redneck uses toilet paper, the hillbilly uses leaves, and the hick doesn't bother.

Answer 6

Baldie has the right answer. I live in central Alabama and some of us don't mind being called a Redneck it is the new reference to being a country bumpkin.

Answer 7

This might help....though in my area, we prefer to be called Appalachian-Americans. :-)

Here's a Valentine Poem I got this y'ar

Collards is green,
my dog's name is Blue
and I'm so lucky
to have a sweet thang like you.

Yore hair is like cornsilk
a-flapping in the breeze.
Softer than Blue's
and without all them fleas.

You move like the bass,
which excite me in May.
You ain't got no scales
but I luv you anyway.

Yo're as satisfy'n as okry
jist a-fry'n in the pan.
Yo're as fragrant as "snuff"
right out of the can.

You have some'a yore teeth,
for which I am proud;
I hold my head high
when we're in a crowd.

On special occasions,
when you shave under yore arms,
well, I'm in hawg heaven,
and awed by yore charms.

Still them fellers at work,
they all want to know,
what I did to deserve
such a purdy, young doe.

Like a good roll of duct tape
yo're there fer yore man,
to patch up life's troubles
and fix what you can.

Yo're as cute as a junebug
a-buzzin' overhead.
You ain't mean like those far ants
I found in my bed.

Cut from the best cloth
like a plaid flannel shirt,
you spark up my life
more than a fresh load of dirt.

When you hold me real tight
like a padded gunrack,
my life is complete;
Ain't nuttin' I lack.

Yore complexion, it's perfection,
like the best vinyl sidin'.
despite all the years,
yore age, it keeps hidin'.

Me 'n' you's like a Moon Pie
with a RC cold drank,
we go together
like a skunk goes with stank.

Some men, they buy chocolate
for Valentine's Day;
They git it at Wal-Mart,
it's romantic that way.

Some men git roses
on that special day
from the cooler at Kroger.
"That's impressive," I say.

Some men buy fine diamonds
from a flea market booth.
"Diamonds are forever,"
they explain, suave and couth.

But for this man, honey,
these won't do.
Cause yor'e too special,
you sweet thang you.

I got you a gift,
without taste nor odor,
more useful than diamonds...
IT'S A NEW TROLL'N MOTOR!!

Answer 8

Probably the part of country that the person you have pictured
in your mind comes from ; redneck - maybe GA, AL,MS or
thereabouts ;hillybilly-KY,TN neighborhood ; and us hicks are
the smaller backwoods communities in the midwest. Where
the rest of you rubes come from, I have no idee.

Answer 9
