@aredridel sorry what is WASP?
@LottieVixen @aredridel white Anglo-Saxon protestant
@a_breakin_glass @aredridel okay thank you, but also wow now i just need to ask "what is that",
but I won't I'll just admit I have no idea
@LottieVixen @a_breakin_glass @aredridel it’s an American term for, well, the old/still-current elite
@chucker @LottieVixen @a_breakin_glass Where I live in Boston, the distinction between WASP and catholic is strong and deeply felt. Entire towns that are one or the other, or huge swaths.
And if you want to see WASP as a larger area, ask yoursellf "what is the culture of Connecticut?" That. That's WASP culture.
