53 per cent dixie - makes sense- grandparents raised me in Pa every summer and went to a semi Northern College-mason dixon line My heart is only Dixie though
That was fun. I came out with 72 % The one thing that I thought was odd though was the "Aunt" (which I pronounce like "want" -- the only people I've ever known to pronounce it that way were my parents and my relatives from Virginia. In grad school a Black friend of mine (from Toadsuck, Arkansas) said I was the first white person she'd ever heard say it that way. But the quiz said "Massachusetts" -- I particularly thought that was odd because Louisa May Alcott (from Massachusetts) definitely pronounced it "ant" because she made a pun "aunt hill" in one of her books.
