Default Classically curious

Do you think The Bahamas has social class levels?
(Upper, middle, and lower class?)

If you agree it does exist, Do you think classes mix much? Whether it's schools, dating, hanging out in certain places?

Last question: We all know it's easier to date up, but is it a problem to date down??

(I know this is a sensitive subject for some people, so i wanted to throw some fire into the forum today.....since i been gone a while )

Yup u gat diff crowds that hang diff places........................it goes str8 down the family line normally eg a rich kids parents more than likely are friends with other rich kids parents and so all of their kids would normally hang.............only a few rich ppl still kick it with poor folk
Last question: We all know it's easier to date up, but is it a problem to date down?? LOL @ dis..............dis ain gern nowhere.................ya kno how ppl dem parents and friends go cuz they ain ga let u live it down if u checking a junglis..........like i think it should be your decision but most a da time society will work hard to make sure ppl from diff social classes are not together but it kinda backfiring cuz plenny well off gals is be checkin ghetto *****z and vice versa

Yes there are social classes everywhere, nothing new there, and we do not mix as much as many may think because of the social structure in place. The upper classes belong to their privet fund raising clubs, the lower class hang out at the local bars and the middle class seem to more between both upper and lower class.

Furthermore, as it pertains to dating down line; this only happens when the purchase of sex is a motivating factor..

Yes

I think so , I see more of the "upper"class kids wanting to hang with the"no so upper" class kids because they see there lifesytyle/activities as more attractive.


Last question: We all know it's easier to date up, but is it a problem to date down??
For me the "lines" are'nt as typical as others, it's not where you came from, it's who you are today and aim to be tommorow and I never date up or down I stick to my level anything else would be "unbalanced"

Cool but before you do, lets have some fun with it!

Who can guess what Toni has been up to for all that time?

Me first! My guess is that she did time in the slammer for unpaid traffic tickets.
