SB-Yankee in this case is in reference to peple who live above the Mason Dixon Line (an invisible line of definition during the American Civil War). It means Northerner.
48% Dixie. Barely in Yankeedom. Very Interesting!! After all I'm a VA, MN, TX and back to VA mut! I guess I picked up a little bit of everything along the way (and the PA & NC influences of Mom & Dad). Great quiz- thanks Bea! ~Fab : )
i have to be a historian dork for just a moment. the mason-dixon line was a line of measurement taken about 20 years before the civil war started. it runs between pennsylvania and maryland. the official north-south line for the war was below maryland. over time, the mason-dixon line has become associated with the civil war, though the two actually have nothing to do with one another.
which is soooo weird. I gerw up in southern california, have lived in Pittsburgh for the past 6 years and spent maybe a month total in New York visiting in-laws
I guess Southern California can be considered part of "The South" technically. I've never considered my self southern. If anything I'd say I come from a good Californio family.
Not particularly shocking actually. 36% Dixie. I am definitely a Yankee. HOW FUN!!!

ReplyDeleteI concur. Besides my use of y'all and folks, I'm yankee through and through. :0) Never lived in the South or East.
Oh Lordy I'm surrounded by Yankees LOL I've lived in MD for 15 years so I'm really a southern import. It's a cute quiz though isn't it?
