I've always thought of it as southwest--a combination of the south and the west. My daughter lives in Dallas and I don't feel like I have gone to the south when I visit her.

To me when I think of the "true" south, I think MS, AL, and GA. Not sure about the Carolinas, Louisiana, or Virginia. And Florida is a complete enigma. LOL

South Carolina and Tennessee are definitely in that same MS, AL, and GA Southern category.

The very topic of this thread is a debate that only exists in the minds of southerns. Here in the north, we don't concern ourselves with this useless distinction.

I have never heard a person from the "the north" say "I wonder which is better, the north or the south". While almost every person I've ever met who is from "the south" has said something like "Well, down south we do it like this" or "If you were from the south you would know..." implying that the south is superior in some way.

If it the south really was "better" in some way, everyone in the county would think so, not just the people who live there.
