We're told that we're increasingly living in a class-less society, but people still (in the UK at least) define themselves largely around class categories. So what are you?

Of course I'm middle class, I live in Surrey. But the majority of other Surrey-ites probably see me as Plebian.

I don't really know to be honest but probably uncomfortably wedged somewhere between Working and Middle class.
I'd be interested to hear how people decide which class they fit into, or not. Do you take into consideration what class your parents are/were? And to what degree. Or is it largely based on your own situation/beliefs etc? |

Cleese: (In bowler hat, black jacket and pinstriped trousers) I look down on him (Indicates Barker) because I am upper-class. Barker: (Pork-pie hat and raincoat) I look up to him (Cleese) because he is upper-class; but I look down on him (Corbett) because he is lower-class. I am middle-class Corbett: (Cloth cap and muffler) I know my place. I look up to them both. But I don't look up to him (Barker) as much as I look up to him (Cleese), because he has got innate breeding. Cleese: I have got innate breeding, but I have not got any money. So sometimes I look up (bends knees, does so) to him (Barker). Barker: I still look up to him (Cleese) because although I have money, I am vulgar. But I am not as vulgar as him (Corbett) so I still look down on him (Corbett). Corbett: I know my place. I look up to them both; but while I am poor, I am honest, industrious and trustworthy. Had I the inclination, I could look down on them. But I don't. Barker: We all know our place, but what do we get out of it? Cleese: I get a feeling of superiority over them. Barker: I get a feeling of inferiority from him, (Cleese), but a feeling of superiority over him (Corbett). Corbett: I get a pain in the back of my neck. |

Pretty much brought up as middle class, though my parents were both from working class/"underclass" families. Guess that makes them lower-middle class or summat?
