  5. Jeff Foxworthy.

  6. Mildly offensive term for a lower class white person from the southeastern states of the USA. Derives from someone who spent a lot of time on manual labour outside and so received a "red neck" from the sun.

    Examples:

    Miley Cyrus, Jamie Lynn Spears

    (Stereotype)You can tell if you're a redneck if you:

    - say y'all

    - think mud rasslin' should be an Olympic sport

    - think the biggest fashion risk you take is which plaid you'll wear to the 4-H Fair

    - need an estimate from your barber before you get a haircut

    - You own a homemade fur coat

  7.   What  is a Redneck ?

    Redneck in modern usage, predominantly refers to a particular stereotype of individuals living in Appalachia, the Souther United States, and the Ozarks, and later the Rocky Mountain States, and Central Valley California. The word can be used either as derogatory or as a matter of pride, depending on context. Usage of the term redneck generally differs from hick and hillbilly, because rednecks reject or resist assimilation into the dominant culture, while hicks and hillbillies theoretically are isolated from the dominant culture.

    Stereotypes

    The stereotypical redneck may live in a mobile home or old weatherbeaten farm house in a rural area, and drive an old, large, beat-up pickup truck or a '60s or '70s muscle car, possibly adorned with the Confederate Battle Flag, with a gun rack in the rear window. He may possibly drive a tractor to do jobs such as cutting and bailing hay and harvesting crops, but he might also use it for pure entertainment. His clothing consists of a "wifebeater" (a white sleeveless undershirt), or a farmer t-shirt. He also wears blue jeans, a baseball or trucker hat. The jeans of redneck men often have a permanent circle on the back-pocket from carrying a can of dipping tobacco, such as Skoal or Copenhagen. Their hair is often worn in the mullet style, or in a military-style haircut. They are also prone to swearing, perhaps not as much as the stereotypical Yankee, but more than other Southerners, Mountaineers, or Appalachians. A redneck is stereotypically imagined as consuming mass-produced American beer such as Budweiser or Miller by the case. Other beverages might include Moonshine, Pabst Blue Ribbon and Jack Daniel's whiskey.

    Stereotypical hobbies include hunting, fishing, riding four-wheelers and snowmobiles, and watching professional wrestling (often pronounced wrassling using the stereotypical drawl), stock car racing, demolition derbies, tractor pulls and monster truck rallies. Rednecks are characteristically fond of repairing car engines and collecting junked cars on their lawns.

    Redneck Attitude

    Being Redneck is more about attitude than anything else. Generally, a modern day Redneck lives with a free spirit, and does not like to be told how to live. Rednecks tend not to follow social trends, and do not have a "keep up with the Jones" attitude. Rednecks do not feel they have to impress anyone. Most Rednecks live or desire to live in a rural location. Some have a desire to live off the land. Rednecks like a simpler way of life, and tend to be frugal and resourceful. Almost all of us have some Redneck in us, but it is more evident in some than others. The word "Redneck" has become mainstream, and the lifestyle has become acceptable and even desired. You can find Rednecks all over the United States.
