I never knew that depending on how far you stand from a person while talking to them defines what social class you belong in. By watching the video in class with the WASPS and people from the lower class I have realized what kind of things define what social class you are in. For example the boy whose mom works at burger king wears a sweater vest just for show so his friends don't think that he is from the working poor class. When in reality he lives in a trailer house in very poor conditions. This shows by the way you dress other people will define what class you come from. Its also interesting how one of the WASP said the someone wore a suit instead of a tux and he was in shock how the person was even let in! Again people are being judged on what they wear. Also in the video one of the WASP guys said that you can define what class someone belongs in depending if they have a part in their hair or not. I thought that this all was very interesting because I don't believe that depending on how far you stand from a person or if you have a part in your hair comes into play when determining ones social class ranking.
