(52,331 posts)I am not going to apologize for holding white color jobs. My parents were lower middle income - no high level "managerial or professional" occupation - and they sacrificed a lot to send us, kids, to college and beyond.
I am also not going to apologize for not caring for fishing and hunting.
I once went to a restaurant that had its own creek so if one orders a fish, one could get it real fresh. I did, and could barely eat it. This fish, I thought, was alive 15 min ago and now is on my plate..
No, I am not a vegetarian, but a coward who purchase meat, fish and poultry boxed and wrapped where the portions carry no resemblance to their origin.
I am also not going to apologize that many of our jobs were in the suburbs so we purchased homes to be close by, thus never lived in an inner city neighborhood.
