I don’t see many movies or the TV shows, nor had I been to any of the restaurants, we cook! But have lived rural most of my adult life.
- First one in my family on either side to ever go to college. Live in rural Midwest. My mom stayed home with us while my dad worked in a factory.
I scored 40. Most of my points probably came from growing up in a small industrial city. I totally acknowledge that I live in a liberal bubble. I feel like there should be a corresponding quiz for people who live in a conservative bubble.
I guess i live in a bubble lol
A 24. Hmmm…
49; have to say, I HATED it when H drove a pick-up; they are just miserable to ride in - way too bumpy, so I probably only rode in it a dozen times total. But this H has a Ph.D. and the majority of our friends have at least a 4-year degree, so to that extent we live in a bubble. However, we did deliberately choose to raise our kids in a middle-class community with lots of people on the lower income and a few on the higher. We wanted them to be exposed to diversity, although most of that diversity was lower income and a pretty high percentage of immigrants. After they were done with school and launched, we did move into a community that is more on par with our education levels.
After reading the preface to the quiz, I didn’t even have to take the quiz to know I’d score low. But it was interesting to take it anyway – I was fascinated by the questions used to determine the score.
I got a whopping 69.

terwitt: our pickup is covered with gay rights/gay marriage stickers and is definitely a conversation starter

Growing up in a very small town in the midwest was largely why I scored a 57. But I have lived over half of my life in a very wealthy suburban area,
There are many kinds of bubbles, as alluded to above. For my “political bubble” quiz, I’d ask “Are you or any of your relatives gay?” and “Have you or anyone in your family married a person of a different race?” and “Have you or anyone in your family ever received unemployment benefits?” For the “age bubble” quiz, I’d ask, “Do you watch any network or cable TV?” and “Do you own a landline?” and “Do you have any family members who receive or will receive a traditional pension?” That’s just a start. Lots of things inform our life outlooks.
58 but I live in a town with pop of 950…
I think this needs to be reworded; unless anyone truly only has less than a dozen relatives (which would include cousins however many times removed) then they have relatives that are gay. It’s just whether or not that LGBTQ relative has shared that information with family members. I know that one of my cousins never came out to my mom and my mom was just too narrow-minded to even consider why the cousin got divorced and never remarried, while living with long-term female friends.
39, but a lot of what brought it down was experience from where I grew up prior to college, not how I’ve spent the last 30 years.
14, ha.
Hardly ever go to the movies and I don’t watch any tv series at all. Never eat at chain restaurants and don’t own a truck. Didn’t know of those military symbols and never worked in a factory or needed a uniform.
I consider myself sort of in touch with what’s going on though
@RightCoaster, thanks for making me feel better about my 22.
It’s interesting. I’ve lived in huge urban areas and rural areas. Rural, small town now hence the truck and the fishing…although the fishing boat I was on this summer at 455,000 cost more than most people’s homes and my H has a truck for his business (no gun rack). And I laughed at the Jimmie Johnson question. But these “polls” are always amusing and it’s fun to see what everyone got.
Well, so far on this thread, I guess I lose. My score is 70. Prior military, moved around a lot, have been poor and apparently have low class habits. 
Funny, when they asked about how many times one eats at the Outback? I thought that was upscale eating. 
I came in with about 37, which surprises me.
Some of the things that struck me
No smokers, although I grew up around pipes, cigars, and cigarettes- it was the family business until the 90s. WA has some strict smoking laws and it’s not allowed in my workplace/company.
We weren’t in poverty, but there was nothing extra.
Evangelicals- I know some, semi-friendly, but given how I, a Catholic,was regarded by them, I will never be close.
In a bubble because I don’t like country music (Branson)?
I’ll have to play around with the quiz
