Are you middle class?

Is there a couch potato class ?

I'm technical middle class as well.

Does that mean owns your own home but needs to be good at DIY?

I opened the link for the test, but the test wouldn't start
f77ms my reply was tongue in cheek as I said does it matter.

What?? I am established middle class, whatever that means??
Went to a rough London comprehensive, then to London University, became Headmistress at a private school, have a common accent and no idea about etiquette. I'm happy to vary my "class" depending on whom I'm with or to whom I'm speaking.

I did it when we discussed it before and can't remember what it said I was. But, it got it wrong.

New affluent worker which is odd as I've always considered myself working class and proud!

Ugh! I can't find the quiz - not that I think it is very important. I live a life of elegant economy - just like they did in Cranford. I have no idea where that fits in. Does all this really matter or is there even any worthwhile truth in it?

Just <sigh>

Interesting thread. I spent a lot of my childhood on a council estate and at my school that was considered to be working class.

I started off as lower middle and now I think I'm lower middle again.

Traditional Working class

Me too Annie.

Traditional Working class

Well I am Technical middle class . Who would have though it..?

Oh, and I'm not a worker (not now, anyway)

Well, I'm a new affluent worker, apparently.

^This class group is sociable, has lots of cultural interests and sits in the middle of all the groups in terms of wealth:
This youthful class group is economically secure, without being well off
These people have high scores for emerging culture, such as watching sport, going to gigs and using social media
They do not tend to participate in highbrow culture, such as classical music and theatre
People in this group are likely to come from a working class background
Many people in this group live in old manufacturing centres of the UK in the Midlands and North West^

Pretty accurate, apart from the fact that youthful might be a tad flattering, and I specifically said no to watching sport and yes to listening to classical music and going to the theatre.

So much of it goes on income in most of the "quizzes" I have seen. I don't think I have a hope as I am statistically poor - but that's another area for a different debate

All I can think of at the moment is the TW3 (I think) sketch with the two Ronnies and John Cleese ... found it

Oh and me mollie which seems daft

Mmmm, technical middle class.

Thanks Shysal I have done the test and I am 'Established Middle Class'. I was hoping they would not ask what newspaper I read, as I would have been immediately downgraded Yes you've got it the DM, with occasionally the 40p version of the Independent.

Yes <sigh>

Apparently I am traditional working class. There are now 7 British classes.
Take the test

I Have savings , have good manners , go to the Opera , own my own home and also know which cutlery to use but am Working class . I don`t think people who are working class have bad manners and don`t know which cutlery to use lol .

When I was working for market research our house hold was classed as 'Working class' as H was not in charge of anyone at work. Their criteria was all about the major breadwinners job.
If I really had to declare myself anything it would be lower middle class as we live quiet comfortably and have savings, know which piece of cutlery to use, have good manners etc.
However, do we really care these days?

This should be an interesting thread
