You know how some outfits look great on some people but worse on others, even though they’re more or less the same build, age, and the outfit is exactly the same? That’s because sometimes something impalpable, like a skip in their step or their confidence, can make all the difference.
In some situations, it’s money—and the biases that come with it—that make all the difference. This becomes evident after taking a look at some real-life examples, some of which you can find on the list below—that’s where we put some netizens’ two cents on things that are considered classy if you’re rich and trashy if you’re poor. Scroll down to find them below and see for yourself how big of a role wealth-related biases can play.

When the rich are dripped out in designer it’s classy, when regular people wear that , the elitist say you’re trying to impress others. I stick it to them and wear the copy version which looks just like the real one. They can think what they want to think, idc I look great

Home births. Women in LMICs die of inadequate access to maternity homes and qualified personnel. White ppl be doing this whole pool and doula and what jot shit and honestly that’s only possible if you have a home comfortable enough to give birth in and you don’t have generations of illnesses or complications you could have. Here most home births end in sepsis death or PPH.
