True that...

Does it matter though? Not to me but then again I'm British and we have a totally different view of the class system.

We may appear to entirely lack class, to some, but the U.S. is hardly classless.

You're right, though- definitely a different definition than the one you're used to. Here class is conferred by action, or sometimes assumed with wealth, but rarely conferred by birth (as with a peership or rents and a landed title.)

As I said, I've never heard of anyone who calls prostitution dehumanizing and then decides it best to insult the people you think have been dehumanized. This would be akin to saying, "you know coal miners face all sorts of threats to their health and often have a reduced life expectancy.......what assholes." But each to their own.

I'm not insulting them, I just said it is the equivalent of trying to sugarcoat something that is bad.

you can love eating shit, and try to convince me it is good. and then tell me there is gourmet shit. and I will flat out tell you , there is no such thing as gourmet shit, it is all shit.

Same thing for escorts, in my opinion they're doing something degrading, demeaning and what i consider inhumane. Nothing is ever going to convince me that some are somehow "higher class" than their streetwalking counterparts. And I do know escorts in real life. And at no point do i think i'm hanging out with a "high class escort" or "lowly street walker", they're just friends and i treat them as such.

I'm glad you got my meaning.

The UK is obsessed with the class system - the U.S. work ethic (to my mind anyway) is king - work hard and achieve.

I know what you mean regards class by action however, surely it's a persons choice how to act and what to do, regardless of background and wealth.

Yeast eat sugar and excrete alcohol_sometimes the really good high class stuff.

In what way is the boy in this photo retarded? I am surprised that someone would use such an offensive photo to make so minor a point.

I hope your kids are born severely autistic and then die after being hugged to death by a full on turbo retard.

Mad yet?

Most people here in the U.S. try to pretend they're a lot better off then they really are. And a lot of working poor (and worse) who think they're temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

Hard work is usually necessary for success, but nothing is guaranteed. A lot of hard working people live in poverty. A lot of college graduates flip burgers, or wait tables these days for minimum wage. It's sad.
