There is a disdain of more fundamentalist religious types, particularly those whose theological views leach into their politics, and who like guns and so forth, and those types tend to be more common in the South. That is about it imo. The South is a BIG place as well. The ambiance in Waco, TX is a lot different than the ambiance in Ashland, NC, not to mention places like Alexandria, VA. And this disdain, while perhaps more common with red avatars, certainly is also rather common among the blue ones (e.g., how many gay blue avatars are running around in this hood now?). This forum is not representative of America - at all. Who knew? Silly thread really. Very silly.
I think ya meant Asheville.
