The Yankees don't have a clue as to how serious "grooming your baby girl to be a XYZ" is down here in the South. I learned about it one Christmas while visiting the relatives and when the "aunts" were talking about it I actually laughed thinking they were kidding and I was greeted by icy stares. (and probably a few "Bless your hearts" for being so ignorant about the importance of where your D took ballet classes). The phrase "whose your daddy" takes on a whole new meaning down here.

Sorry for the intrusion, but there is a book called
How to Be A Southern Belle, or Why Princess Margaret Will Never Be a Kappa Kappa Gamma. The title of the book is a funny play on words, but like you said, in the South it is true.
