Theoketos Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 So, I do not think that most of them are. I think that too many people in Kansas where cowboy boots and hats to make them yankees. Plus most of the states in the Midwest were not on any side in the War of Northen Aggression. Lastly their natural virtue is something lost on alot North Easterners. ( I could be way off, though I doubt it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theoketos Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 I said <edit> alot. At the same time I Like alot of Yankees, but I would not want to live up there. I think the weather has alot to with the disposition of the people living up there. Every time I go up there and be my normal polite self, I get the response of "your so kind, you must not be from around here." Also people from Wisconsin are cool, at least beacuase of thier accents.

shelly_freak Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 I'm a yankee born in Florida...I'm a little of both worlds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allis-challmers Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 midwest is not yankee. there are to many small towns in the midwest to be considered yankee. I lived on a farm all my life. not downtown of any city. indiana might not be southern but it definatly is not yankee. we just use a little bit of both worlds we are the perfect mix of both.
