What is even happening?
I think expensive is associated with high-class. Not equated.And some of this is location and culture (subculture) dependent, I think. Some of the rattiest looking Yankees (in the New England sense, particularly Mainers) you'll ever see, are filthy rich, and live a spartan life.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm assuming someone posted it in the 200 messages above I skipped?

With groups of women, I can feel like I missed something key when learning to socialise. Which I probably did, being raised in a mostly female family and going to all girls schools from age 11.

I got all excited, as this is how I feel much of the time as I try to keep up with just a few threads, and fail miserably.
Sigh...

The gauntlet of wedding and baby showers I'm running this year has only reinforced my feeling that, yes, my acculturation is wildly incomplete.

I've been lucky in that most of those things either fall into family, college friends, or krav circles -- all a bunch of gender freaks in their own way.
And I mean the term freak very gently.

Yeah. For me, it's a unnerving sense of the alien, like noticing the off-key details of a dream as you're having a kegger with your college buddies at your great aunt and uncle's two-houses-ago-home and crocodiles are roaming wild in Kansas. Like standing in a Burger King in Budapest and trying to figure out how to order french fries; the landscape looks familiar, like you ought to know what you're doing, but the language is nothing like your own and nobody stops to help you, because you're dressed like you belong there instead of wearing a Hawaiian shirt and a fanny pack and sneakers that light up when you walk.
Like that.
