ooh maybe? I'm not familiar enough with other protestant subcultures to know if they were equally into etiquette.

From my experience, homeschoolers are trads: uncomfortable with change, hearkening back to older ways. Irrespective of external political ideology. This stuff isn't so much high society as *old* society.

"Not so much high society as old society" scale also applies to "cows and thrift stores". Small towns today do what cities did yesterday. (Read Jane Jacobs' "The Economy of Cities")

Perhaps it is about the attempt of this culture to define strict hierarchies and power structures. Rules about etiquette are all about revealing and reinforcing power relationships.

What’s the difference between a Baptist and a Methodist? The Methodist will say hi to you in the liquor store.

had the same experience with an evangelical homeschool community in NJ. the world just felt learnably one-dimensional: this is how everyone acts in middle-class, that is how everyone acts in rich context. (in reality ofc knowing how to talk is more important to pass, and harder)
