People aften say these things about preps:
They are snobs
They think too much of themselves
All they care about is their looks and shopping
They love
pink, A&f and making fun of
goth/punks
They are the popular,dumn sluts.
All of these things are not true.
Here are some that are:
They are often very good at
school
They are not sluts and do not dress slutty at all; in fact,most of them dress
conservative (the ones that don't aren't true preps)
They do not love A&F, they wear clothes by:
Lily Pulitzer, Ralph Lauren,
Tommy and so on.
THey often play sports like tennis, golf and field hockey.
They do NOT have to live in the north-east or go to a private/ boarding preppy
school
I am a REAL prep (one of few in in my
school) and I attend a public
school.
But I do play tennis and wear some designer clothes.
I dress like a full-on prep and people at my
school do not like that.
It's
weird that I'm not even that popular and people still spread nasty rumors about me just because of my personality and style:PREPPY.
Not often are preps as rich as people say they are, but most of them are well-off, as some would say.
My father is a successful shipbuilder and my family is what you would call 'well off', but us preps don't flaunt it.
We're not very public or rowdy and loud.
The preppy thing generally started in the late 70's and it had never went out of style.
Preps are also good people; good grades, good families, they do good things for their communities.
Preppy=Good!
