Gregory's Server@bhawthorne @troll5 Having a high IQ also helps and this is still something specific to the higher class; I define mine as the transfert of my basic trust ((?) Abram Kardiner) to school symbolism, which was introduced to me since my birth or even before by my mother, who's a good enough mother, would talk to me while being pregnant, etc.
@bhawthorne @troll5 And then there's the cultural capital here, which is _how_ you reach a higher class or rather a higher social course ("trajectoire sociale"), as well as the economic capital, because obviously struggling to make both ends meet stresses mothers. But cool people don't especially have a high IQ, it just helps when you use the right information tools, not when you're addicted to Twitter. The key is a well-informed brain, and free time.
