This is not exactly true and is very much a stereotype, but I
will describe the preps I see in High
School.
Guy Prep:
Body: Extremely thin, and tall. Tanned, with few or no visible skin imperfections. Veins and bones visible when arms move, but generally not that strong. Runs fast though.
Clothes: Usually wears well ironed
Abercrombie shirts and dark Structure jeans with a brown belt, a brown wallet, brown boots, and boxers that are at least three inches out of their pants. Sometimes guys have a
stud earring.
Hair: Gelled crew cut or spikes. Tips sometimes dyed or hair frosted.
Car: A pristinely clean, relatively fast, leather-endowed car (maybe an Accord Coupe).
Music: Rock(Godsmack), heavy metal(Metallica), death metal(Tool), and a little
punk(Offspring).
Activities: Sneaking out, alcohol, sometimes racing, seeing movies, watching football games, playing football, buying clothes.
Girl Prep:
Body: Once again very lean, relatively tall for a girl, big-boobed, moderately sized hips,
perfect skin.
Clothes: Usually wears tight, double-meaning
Abercrombie shirts, hip-hugger jeans, double or triple pronged brown belts, platform sandals, earrings, tight-fitting small purse.
Hair: Long, shiny hair. Sometimes a bow or other decoration. Often, people think of preps as blondes, but there are probably more brunettes around me at least.
Car: Entry level coupe, Civic, RSX, Celica. Leather endowed and always clean, but not very fast or featured.
Music: Whatever the guys around them listen to.
Activities: Hanging around in big groups, meeting up at the mall, seeing movies, cheerleading, shopping with other female preps.
Unisex Prepiness:
Family: Stuck up, rich parents who are blissfully unaware of their children's activites.
Money: Lots of it.
Intelligence: Moderately to highly intelligent, but don't show it. Do OK in
school, go to a good state/private university.
