My family tells me that one of my elderly aunts used to be a flapper way back when.  I'm not sure they all fit the stereotype perfectly, but, yes, they were real.  \n\nWere 'preppies' real in the '80's?  Sure, they were real, but they didn't all act exactly like the ones in the movies, right?

no offense meant, but i don't find gangsters very appealing. i don't want to date someone who looks like he should be in juvy - sorry to put it that way, i'm sorry. i like a prep guy better. aside from the fact that they look clean and decent, i wouldn't be embarassed to introduce him to my parents. this is as far as i can say when it comes to appearance. but, no matter how dirty or how clean a guy is, if he treats me good, is nice, very respectable and respectful towards others - especially me, and is well mannered, intelligent and with a good sense of humour, that, for me, is what counts the most :-)

I would think a good name for those qualities is.... well your definently not a prep... God lets hope not, we don't need another one of those..... Your not punk or goth.... Your not really that Ghetto either.... Not geek, nerd, Jock, or any of those,..... I think a good name is Cool..... You know not like the cool like everyone knows you and thinks you the bomb and you  are sooooo popular... but the kinda cool where you have all the best friends who like you and think you are the best cuz of who you are.  Probably not the best answer but the best one i could think of.\n\nP.S.  A good nickname for you is....C&C (Comfortable and Confident) Or just CC.

Doesn't matter if your "preppy", as long as you act like yourself than it doesn't matter what your identity might be. It won't always work out with that one"special" guy but who cares, theres tons of dudes out there.

Lol Honestly to tell you the truth, you can't just become a Prep in an instant. The term Prep was used to symbolize a person who attends a private preparatory boarding school, coming from a really prominent family in New England, such as a high ranking politician, business mogul, and etc.

prep·o·si·tion1 (prĕp'ə-zĭsh'ən) pronunciation\nn. (Abbr. prep.)\n\nA word or phrase placed typically before a substantive and indicating the relation of that substantive to a verb, an adjective, or another substantive, as English at, by, with, from, and in regard to.\n\n[Middle English preposicioun, from Old French preposicion, from Latin praepositiō, praepositiōn-, a putting before, preposition (translation of Greek prothesis), from praepositus, past participle of praepōnere, to put in front : prae-, pre- + pōnere, to put.]\n\nUSAGE NOTE   It was John Dryden who first promulgated the doctrine that a preposition may not be used at the end of a sentence, probably on the basis of a specious analogy to Latin. Grammarians in the 18th century refined the doctrine, and the rule has since become one of the most venerated maxims of schoolroom grammar. But sentences ending with prepositions can be found in the works of most of the great writers since the Renaissance. English syntax does allow for final placement of the preposition, as in We have much to be thankful for or I asked her which course she had signed up for. Efforts to rewrite such sentences to place the preposition elsewhere can have stilted and even comical results, as Winston Churchill demonstrated when he objected to the doctrine by saying “This is the sort of English up with which I cannot put.”•Sometimes sentences that end with adverbs, such as I don't know where she will end up or It's the most curious book I've ever run across, are mistakenly thought to end in prepositions. One can tell that up and across are adverbs here, not prepositions, by the ungrammaticality of I don't know up where she will end and It's the most curious book across which I have ever run. It has never been suggested that it is incorrect to end a sentence with an adverb.
