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.
