Rich White Girl Syndrome

This only affects upper-class Caucasian females. Girls afflicted with said syndrome are constantly trying to escape the fact that they are rich white girls. To seem more down to earth they try too hard to be artsy and/or outdoorsy. Despite the fact that their parents have paid their way through life, they still attempt to appear independent and free spirited. Commonly, a female affected by RWGS will force themselves into friendships with minorities or gays, as they think that this will make them out to have substance when they are actually shallower than a puddle in Arizona. Often times, the rich white girl will make her way into an art school, usually to major in fashion/design, however the acceptance into said art school is not due to her underwhelming artistic talent, but rather the span of her parents' wallet. They are commonly dressed with a style like that of a hipster. Though one may claim that she bought that sweater at Saver's, don't be fooled; she bought it for $50 at Urban Outfitters. These girls like to act as if they can party, but if they drink anything harder than a beer or do hard drugs then they'll be vomiting or passed out within the hour. Conversations with rich white girls will often revolve around them. Although they love to talk about life's hardships, the hardest part of their day is deciding which size coffee to get at Starbucks. Girls affected with RWGS are usually vegetarians and/or smokers. They are commonly referred to as yuppies.
