In last weeks class our professor asked us a question on what class we believed we were when we grew up. Mostly the whole class stated that they believed and thought they were middle class. It just comes to show that everything from how each individual grew up and the environment one was raised in can help one describe their class. In the end it showed ME how to describe class in a better way and that not everyone can be defined as lower, middle, or higher class

People like Us
In this video it shows how society likes to judge people on their social class. Society can judge on what someone dresses, looks, jobs they obtain, the types of home one lives in, etc..Towards the beginning of the video a woman in a school I believe was judging on everyone that past right by her, for example the words she used to describe some were dorky, dirty, and ghetto. The people that were talking and stating certain states on what they were describing how how some can describe lower,middle, or high class. What I also took from this was that when some women in the beginnign of the video saw the picture of an old man she automatically assumed he was lower class, but she said maybe he just dress like a lower class person but probably aren't. It seems that people are easily judging other with out knowing anything about them. This is what today in our society describe people today. It just comes to show that society can consider themselves in any type of class, because if one grew out of the a certain class they would push aside the ones they didn't fit in into the certain status that seemed fit.
