That belief is one reason why
some NoVA people are trying to pretend they aren't part of VA and aren't southern.
Why be from VA if you only see VA as the home of the confederacy; and why be southern if you have a narrow vision of what the south represents.
It's cool because there are farms with confederate flags in NoVA.
At the end of the day, it is all the south and there are different levels of "southerness" depending on where you are in the south and the people who live there. Yes, a NoVA young lady who goes through recruitment at a school in a deeper part of the south may be seen as northern because she is "not as southern as....".
