That is why I posted it, I see soemone is offended, must be that ruther person or whatever the name huh?.....

It only offends me if someone was to say You F****** Redneck, especially when I am in the city, or when people try and make a general statement about rednecks being stupid or such.....I would love to go up into a battle of brains with some of them, not a battle of wits, jsut brains (there is a differance)

Offended by Redneck?

I don't consider myself to be a Certified red neck as there are Very Few "Beer Joints" for me to Visit so i can update and renew my membership. All practicing RN's know that when you're at a real beer Joint the very first thing you learn how to do is duck when those empty bottles start flying. The next thing is if you see a broad with a Butt to Die for you better figure out which "big and Ugly " has her Title. Then you go put on your tennis shoes so you can run like Tarzan chasing Jane after she told him she wanted a divorace. THEN , and only then are you properly prepared to ask "Sweet thang" if she'd like to Dance. ****It should be obvious here that you don't ask her to dance until Big and Ugly has entered the men's room for an extended period of getting rid of those 5 Dollar beers. The correct strategy here is too Hugh her tightly and tell her how beautiful she looks even though she's alittle Past 40. You've only got about 5 minutes before B&U shows back up to claim his property!!!Happy hunting............ sk

I don't consider myself a redneck, but I know a few and they could care less what you call them - ain't that what being a red neck is all about?

My necks about as red as the pack of Marlboro's I'm smoking. Dang proud of it too, but just to make it fair and to uphold the status quo: If I aint allowed to say that other word just because I'm not one (dont play stupid, you know which one) then only rednecks can say redneck, everyone else has to call it the "R" word or refer to us as "Trailerpark-Americans" or "people with farmers tans". Fair 'nuff?

Pass the cleenex, now someone's crying over the term "redneck." Don't let it be a derogatory word, and it won't be. Be offended, and you let the general public's connotation of the word become derogatory.

Did any of you know that Central Canadians (Ontarioans & Quebecor's ) call Albertan's (people who live in Alberta) Rednecks?

The term Redneck is not Racial, it is used in such away (slang term) to describe someone who Isn't Sophisicated

I think I need help in determining whether I'm a redneck or just a redneck in training. I drive a truck (obviously), listen to country music, bow hunt, and chew tobacco. How do I get my member card?

Mail a check or PayPal me $29.99 for a 3-year membership. Send a passport size picture for your card -- for an extra $5, I'll even laminate it in duct tape!

You don't get a member card, It should be obviously apparant. Get a little rust on your truck, a few missing teeth...j/j I know people who's necks are redder than well anyone I know personally, but they live in the city, where a suit, and drive a nice car...(I said nice, not foreign i.e BMW, merc they drive caddy's lincolns, buicks, cobras duallys) Like my dad, you will not meet many a people who are more a coonass than him, but he drives a 2x4 S/C lives in the suburbs, plays golf all day, and wears dockers, very expensive dress shirts, tiess to work...and his **** kickers..... His truck looks very much like a city truck....Hard cover, no scratches, steps on it.....until you raise that cap.....There is something deep down inside that will always be there...you know when you are a redneck. you can become one, but you can never no longer be one once you are one.
