Please, moderators, could you put this thread in to the correct forum if it is out of place? Thank you.
What do you think about Snobbery? I was brought up in 50's England, and where the right voice could gain a much better job than the wrong voice, and a particular school tie really could get gain entry to the very best careers. I lived in a country that was so completely embraced by snobbery in so many thousands of ways that this subject could fill a sociologist's studies for a lifetime....I expect..
And now? Where I live? Kent, England in 2021 is still embraced by snobbery, it just shows its face in different ways today. Our children can tell you more about 'street cred' than I can, but I do assure you that if you haven't got the right clothes and shoes, the right reactions and voices, the right certificates and qualifications, the right gear, etc etc....... you will be the victim of modern snobbery.
And on RF? Have you ever noticed any posts that smacked of modern snobbery?
Over to you......................
