Preps aren't what everyone seems to think on this site, they arent the popular whores at every hs who wear reaveling outfits and shop at AF, hollister and those stores, being preppy(the adjective form) isnt about where you buy you clothes and what you wear, its about how you act and your overall lifestyle
they wear Basic Polos usually bright or classic colors, slacks(khakis, plaids, seersuckers), occaisionally jeans, in the summer cargo shorts and shorts similar to the pants they wear, ribbon belts, for shoes we wear birkenstocks, topsiders, penny loafers, and occaisionally classic type sneakers (ie old tennis shoe type sneakers) ou clothes are usually bought from J. Crew, Vinyard Vines, Lacoste, B.Bros, and if we must shop in any of the mall "trendy party prep" type stores we shop at AE which is the most classic and preppy of those (AF, HCO, Aero)
A prep is always courteuos, kind and respectful, they are the kind of people that grandparents and parents look at and say" hes a fine young man"
a preppy lifestle consists of living in a nice community and contrary to popular belief we dont always live in huge houses and you'll never find us living in homes labled as mcmansions, our homes always have archetectural value and are always tastefully and classicly decorated, in our garge you will typically find a car such and a volvo, vw, audi, bmw and occasionnaly another european made car, we participate un lifelong sports such as crew, golf, tennis, sailing, swimming, and sometimes lacrosse
and most importantly WE GO TO PREP SCHOOLS, day or boarding
What most people have to come to realize is that prep is a lifestyle enjoyed by a fortunate few of us it isnt a clothing style, it includes how we live, how we act and what we do

Older Prep 1: Look at that young man holding the door for that woman.

Word originated from northeastern preparatory school uniforms. In modern use, refers to teenagers intrested in upper class clothing and materialistic goods. "Prep" attire includes shirts, polos, ripped jeans, and such. Cheap "knockoff" prep brands include Aeropostale and American Eagle (polos, $20-$30). Medium prep brands include Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch (polos, $30-$50). True prep brands include Ralph Lauren and Lacoste (polos, $65-$80). High-end department stores, such as Nordstrom's and Bloomingdale's often carry real "preppy" clothing. "Prep" refers to the way one presents themselves. Many such preps will often "pop" their collar. Many believe this looks stupid, but the polo shirt was invented by Renee Lacoste, and the collar was designed to be popped to protect the neck from the sunlight while playing tennis. A common misconception is the stereotype that all "Preps" are dumb and ditzy. Although many are snotty and dumb, many are nice and intelligent. Female preps can often be associated with the word Jap (Jewish American Princess).
Non-prep: You spent $80 on a new shirt?!
Prep: Yeah, its really nice!
Non-prep: Ugh, you are such a prep!
Prep: Yeah, its really nice!
Non-prep: Ugh, you are such a prep!

Speaking on behalf of most preps, i am here to tell u the false stereotypes about preps
1.)Preps DO NOT hate anyone that isnt like them. they just dont, i and many i know have friends that are goth/emo/punk etc.
2.)all Preps DO NOT listen to pop/rap/hip hop music, its false, as a matter of fact, abercrombie, hollister, and american eagle all play mainly rock in their stores, and there isnt one kind of music all preps listen to
3.)preps DO NOT use words like "wow" and "like" and "omg" all the time, there is no truth to that, it is a widely believed stereotype that is false
4.)all preppy girls ARE NOT slutty/bitchy,another fake stereotype, all groups of people have their sluts and bitches, not one specific group
5.)one of the ones that pisses me off the most....all preps ARE NOT!!!! stuck up and snobby, god dammit, there is no truth to that,we just like to hang out with friends and have fun just like anyone, just cuz we pay more for cloths doesnt make us "snobby" so yea
I think ive covered most of what was needed

There are three definitions of prep:
1) The country-club tennis-playing yacht-partying Ivy-league-attending preps who consider themselves the 'true' preps. Many have already posted dtheir definitions here.
And in the middle-class world:
2) The upper-middle class folk who wear Abercrombie & Fitch, American Eagle, and Hollister. They are also sometimes known as "cookie-cutters." The cookie-cutter prep can be found throughout most suburban American highschools. They are generally intelligent and in good classes, even though they often appear somewhat vacuous. The boys like to goof off, while the girls giggle at the boy's antics. Tending to dress rather conservatively and in pastels, they are often nice enough and are not vindictive to friends because they have perfect lives and never fight. They tend to not be vindictive to other social groups or those outside their cliques either because they a) ignore them as often as possible and b) have no quarrels with anyone. They are a tight-knit if large, group, all with iPods, Razrs, Ugs, and the latest handbag. Surprisinglly, they mayl be friendly to other, 'nerdier' classmates on the rare occasions when they communicate with them. Of course, this does not stop most of them from the obsessive use of "like," or from being arrogant and obnoxious, especially the boys. These may also be called perfect or pretty preps.
3) The third type of prep is the slutty prep. Slutty preps are often friends with the pretty preps, so there is a lot of room for confusion. However, a slutty prep can be anywhere in the middle-class and is much more vindictive, obnoxious, etc. While most female pretty preps are flat chested, the slutty preps are generally(though not always) size D and they know it. Clothing, while from the same venues as the perfect preps, is generally tighter and shows much more cleavage. Slutty preps also tend to be less intelligent, and people are often surprised if one gets into an honor class. Slutty preps curse more, call other people names more, and gossip more. They are more capable of backstabbing and racial slurs, and can generally be described as sluts. While one might want to become a pretty or true prep, one does not want to become a slutty prep. It should also be noted that slutty preps are often the ones with the blonde dye jobs that are growing out or else bad blonde highlights, while pretty preps may have ribbons in their ponytails. Slutty preps are also generally unatheletic, while perfect preps may play soccer, field hockey, tennis, lacrosse, etc. Slutty preps are also more elitist, often harrassing those they consider below them on the social ladder (though to almost everyone except themselves, and their friends, they are often near the bottom of the ladder. No one likes a prep who calls every black girl in the school a bitch and a whore.).
All preps have either long, straight hair or else keep long, dark, curly hair in a ponytail.

1) Lauren is a true prep. She calmly read her Harvard acceptance letter in her new J.Crew outfit before partying on her boyfriend's yacht.
2) Natasha plays field hockey in the fall and tennis in the spring, while on weekends she shops at AE and parties at school dances. All while scoring perfectly on the AP exam. Isn't she such a prep?
3) Marly enjoys making fun of the nerds and smart black girls, but she's so stupid that she thought Washington crossed the Mississppi in a new Hollister shirt while ordering his men on a Razr. What a prep.

There douche fucks, who think that they are better than everybody just because of there expensive worthless clothes, when you could buy knock offs at Bargain City, or Dollar General. They usually are backstabbers, and in some rare occasions they say 'JAK KAY!' OR 'OH EMM GEE', and walk like they have a dildo stuck up there ass from when they were fuckin around with there bestfriends bitch/or man.
'Ohh Emm Gee, i'm like such a prep, like uummm, last night i slept with Brittanys boyfriend and he stuck a dildo up my ass, and now i'm just walkin around like a penguin. '
'Ell oh ell, like today i went too Abercrombie and Fitch and totally saw this dude that i wanted, but Claire got too him before i did, shes such a slut, like shes just a horrible friend. what a back stabber; bitch'

Rich, snobby kids with rich parents who take their luxuries for granted. Prep girls tend to wear skinny jeans and some form of layered tank/blouse. Prep girls are also almost always seen screaming and/or hugging. Guys tend to have skater hair, wear t-shirts from Hollister, Abercrombie, etc., and have plaid shorts.
Most preppy kids are lost in their own preppy world and often act very narcisstic without knowing it themselves. Quite a number of them will think people who don't dress/act like them are "emo" or "goth". They love mainstream music.
Preppy girls tend to be gossippy and will often give non-preppy girls they don't know dirty looks.
Preppy kids are ALWAYS favoured by teachers (no exceptions.) although no one says this. Ever.

1. White angelo-saxon
2. A stereotype placed on teens in America. A prep is usually a white, privlaged kid or teenager. They will usually wear AmberCrombie, American Eagle and Hollister clothes and spit on anyone who wears stuff from a different store. They will believe they're the sexiest thing sence sex because they wear this stuff even if theyre fat and homely-looking. If they are boys, they usually get a Pete Wents hair-do and if theyre a girl they usually spend hours upon hours fixing their hair. Stereotyically, they will not accept anyone who isn't attravctive(even if they're not attractive themselves) or rich(even if they're only middle-class.) They usually have very flirtatious habits and will have sex with almost anyone in the "popular clique." They don't care if they look like a whore, because being a whore is "like totally kewl." They are also usually in sports at school(football for males, cheerleading for females) this would tie them in with the "jock" clique. On Myspace, girls usually have albums of 200-300 pictures of just themselves, usually with very lowcut shirts because they think they have a nice rack; they dress in AmberCrombie clothing even if it is 10 sizes too small on them. Whether they be male or female, a preppy kid will usually think everyone at school wants to be their friends or BF/GF, thats just how highly they think of themselves. However, on the contrary most of the school actually hates their guts and thinks they're complete douchebags for having such an undeserved sence of accomplishment just because their parents happen to have more money than other peoples parents. The girls usually idolize Paris Hilton and think the only reason people don't like Paris is because shes rich and skinny; well preppy girls, if that where the case then why don't those same people have a problem with other rich, skinny girls? Their only friends are other preps who usually end up abandoning them after they grow out of the prep fad and relize the world isn't going to kiss their ass and serve them happiness on a silver platter because they go by some lable. They also have extremely ugly kids as stalkers, usually wannabe preps or social retards who are trying to be just like them.
