        arrogance came from another place that wasn't about feeling superior because of their families economically comfortable situation.

        well in school then you could come across opportunities to move over to the rich side of town and with that belief, there was less judging or prejudice which meant less friction. there were plenty of arrogant rich kids but i had the feeling that their

        the idea that the playing field in life as far as opportunities was at least even and would be evenly judged. if you were a rich kid who didn't want to do anything then you'll end up poor as an adult and if you were a poor kid who worked hard and did

        at the time, social/economic mobility was what everybody was taught which meant that what you personally achieve in life is what is valued by society and not what your past ancestors or relatives have done which gave most people on both sides

        the poor kids dads. my guess back then and now was that a few rich kids might have reservations about dating a kid from the "wrong side of the tracks" but it would mostly be the girls and not so much the boys but i could be mistaken on that.

        i also didn't noticed that much friction between cliques or between rich and poor people. rich kids seemed more afraid of the poor kids at first but most never came across as thinking they were superior because their dads made more money than

        i also like the idea of ducky being straight and not a repressed homosexual who hadn't figured it out yet. he needed some guy friends who could advise him about why the girl that he liked wanted to friend zone him.

        who knew it and their focus seemed to be on being pretty and attention from boys and getting a good looking boyfriend and not much else or at least that's what they seemed like to me.

        death rockers who later became known as goths but they all made up their own sizable clique and weren't bizarre loner types who held their heads down and were afraid to talk. i guess there were sort of claires but really they were the pretty girls

        kids with hair trigger tempers got their a--es kicked in those days and so guess who would get baited and teased. lol they would've left AMH character alone and kind of respected him. there were no ally sheedy characters that i recall. there were

        because that would've implied a sort of envy and jealousy and anyways they had better things to think and worry about like not getting knifed or jumped on their way to school and back. lol emilio estevez's character would've gotten his a-- kicked.

        i also don't remember HS the way that it was portrayed in the movies but then again kids were a little rougher and poorer. there were plenty of stoners but the john benders wouldn't have given these rich kids the compliment of insulting them

        btw, i thought molly ringwald's character in sixteen candles was a spoiled brat. :D i got socks and a red sweater from target for my 16th birthday & i shrugged & didn't care because we were poor. i also would've preferred not having my b-day remembered too.

        good article. i was thinking about how a lot of the scenes in these movies wouldn't fly with the PC police now days. actually there are some things in them that would be rape and sexual assault that were treated as acceptable or not crossing a red line.
