i think your mixing up terms like class and culture. not all low class people have the same type of behavior.
> what you like to do, what you consider ok, what you appreciate or accept in others.
this is describing a culture
> exactly proof that you view them as lower class than yourself.
i don't think you understand what your talking about now. another post said the same thing. trashy is undesirable behavior from people. not acting trashy doesn't move you between classes. You just stop fitting the description of trashy.

- closedloop129 4y agoYou think of class as layers of wealth. But that's only part of it. The most important part is culture. >Do they understand how little of their world I’m familiar with? Do they understand how much implicit knowledge they take for granted that I don’t have? If you have that knowledge, you have the connections to regain your wealth. The people who act trashy, if they would learn to not act trashy, they most likely would change class - have different friends, make more money.
- tsimionescu 4y agoClass and culture are mixed up, they can't be completely separated. Also, when you call some behavior "trashy", it's undesirable from your point of view. The people engaging in it may not find it trashy at all.
