theres a guy in my asian art hist. class who is visually the epitome of a redneck stereotype except hes an art history major and is very clearly passiomate about it

imagine a bowlegged white guy with a beard wearing flannel, a belt buckle, and cowboy boots talk about the intricacies of a hindu temple in sri lanka. this is the future liberals want

hey guys check out this dumb redneck but twist: he’s not actually dumb!! he likes art and other stuff like a regular civilized person!!

i never insinuated he was dumb, and at no point did i assume he was just an ignorant redneck caricature. i was simply surprised at the unusual combination of the cowboy-esque appearance and his clear passion for art history

specifically. they are two qualities that are not often paired with each other.

i didnt mean to imply my surprise came from a place of preconceived judgement. i made this post because it was just a tiny thing that made my day. im so happy the art history field isnt filled with pretentious stiffs. it is exciting to me to see different cultures collide in ways i never expected.
