It's obviously he was into hooking up with a rich hottie. All she wanted was to get married and start having babies. This is a match made in hell and the marriage will be over while the kid's still in diapers. I'm willing to bet the farm on that one. |

Since, Britney Spears could probably buy any one of you posting on here, and she came from mid to upper class family who obviously had enough money to send her on auditions and get her on Star Search, etc....how is she white trash??
As a black person I have become increasingly perplexed by the popularity of this term in recent years. I'm not trying to get into any mean spirited racial debate; I just don't get it. Growing up (I'm 28) the working definition was a) white people who live in the "hood" because they are too lower middle class to move to the burbs and/or a white working class neighborhood.
b) rural white folk living in modest houses and/ or trailers with little education and menial jobs.
c) white women who were deemed so because they had a preference for non-white men.
It's the same way with "redneck"...I've learned white people have much more specific definition than white people (like Nascar, have a mullet, drive a pickuo etc....whereas living in Kentucky, sometimes I feel surrounding by rednecks even though they are driving BMW's.
See my point??
Oh and by the way, I think Britney is an idiot who is possibly a redneck...jury's still out on that one.
