Hi Leila,

I can say straight up that I was raised in that world. LOL

1. Ironically, if you talk to any of them about your complaints about their kindred, they will chime right in. Everyone on the planet thinks they’re open-minded.

2. They literally don’t know they are acting this way! I had someone say, “You’re a snob, aren’t you?” I had stopped short, thought about what I had just said, and replied, “My God, Jeeves, you’re correct!”

3. The remedy (for them) is to hang out with people (like you). The more you hang with them, the more you’ll rub off on them. They’ll rub off on you, too, but only so you’re not shocked and horrified by the entitlement.

View it all as another form of Culture Shock.
