Wait, What?!! "What’s Up with White Women?" (= title of article)

15. I pointed that out because the reason that people are surprised by the info is that it's a...

group that has a very low public profile. People don't think about them, but these are the women out there waiting tables, cutting hair, working retail, etc. We don't see this group depicted much on TV, maybe Roseanne (who although personally liberal comes from the milieu). The soccer mom is decidedly a more upscale suburbanite. I think the reason that many here are shocked by this is that they typically find themselves associating with more educated and affluent people. These women and their husbands are the ones that rw blowhards appeal to when calling democrats "elitist".
