WASP Families
Where do you live?
Because they represent a majority in the United States.
Movies are produced to make money.
Your product or service should match the demand if you want to sell it.
If you want to sell it to the majority, it has to match the demand of the majority.
It's basic economics.

Posted by firebunnyI'm kind of surprised. Yes, I know the white population comprises the majority of the people in the US but there are many different kinds of White in the US, right? Not just Anglo-Saxons?Posted by QuantumIt's the majority? Ok, I don't know the demographics of the US now.

It's the same with McDonald's commercials. McD's has shifted its marketing towards the lower income brackets, which are mostly minorities. The commercials reflect that majority...most actors are either Hispanic or black outright. Or, they've also been using ethnically ambiguous actors that you're not really sure what they are.
Posted by Prince_PiscesLol. I didn't imagine that it is!Posted by firebunnyI have no idea LOL! There's so many definitions on what it is. I have been called one though, but I think the person thought it was just a slur towards white people?Posted by Prince_PiscesDo you belong to a WASP Family, Prince Pisces?Posted by ElleDuMondeWhite Anglo Saxon Protestant

But among minorities, Hispanics have surpassed blacks.

If your goal is to make as much money as possible from say Cuban Americans, providing goods or services to the Miami area would be a sound business tactic.
Starting that same firm in Suburban Minneapolis is not.
However if your goal is to simply make as much money as possible, you target a majority in the geographic distribution you plan to serve.
Again..It's simple economics.

from Boston, can confirm. WASP infestation, all over the East Coast, esp the New England area. The ones with family money tend to fit that snooty, stuffy stereotype.
but in Boston, many whites are also actually Irish Catholics.

So I read Rabbit's post on the cities of Gary, Indiana and Detroit, Michigan. I took a sneak peek at their Wikipedia entries and learned the following things:
(1) their rise and fall coincided with the rise and fall of the industries that supported the

I have a friend that needs a kidney. I'm a match for her and there are currently no donors that match her. She's asked me twice already and again today if I would help her out. She's a nice person and I'd love to be able to do this, the risk for me is dea

Narcissim? I cannot understand what feeds their desire to be assholes online, or just act like a damn loon, make up grand, idiotic stories...for what? To impress people, to fuck around with people? Seems like a lot of effort and care for people they do no
Anyone ever notice how we pull together in times of need? When friends get sick people really pull together to show support. Granted, some of this is fake but it's still something.

But this post is on the lighter side of things. Please don't take this seriously. I just want to know more about WASP Families and whatever things I may learn from them. I'm just curious... so please excuse my curiosity.
Anyway, my questions are the following:
(1) where are they concentrated?
(2) why are they often made a central theme in various movies (e.g. Meet the Parents)?
(3) do the following movies portray WASP Families too:
(a) Jumanji
(b) Addams' Family
Sorry for my eager curiosity.
