Possibly “Women Air Service Pilots”, or some acronym other than White Anglo-Saxon Protestant”?
WASPs may be an acronym that has become passe. I am old enough to remember when it first appeared. Liberals used it to denigrate patriotic white men who were descendants of the original settlers, i.a., white, anglo, and protestant. This was during the beginning of the so-called civil rights movement and was the battle cry of anti-white southern Christians folks. I am uncertain why the word ‘protestant’ was added, except that the timing was also during the rise of the Kennedy’s, and so they decided that anyone who did not like the Kennedys must be anti-Catholic. lol.
My mother was among the original patriotic, conservative Catholics in my town. She would no more have voted for Kennedy than she would have voter for Alger Hiss.
I find it humorous that WASP has now become a disparaging word for the ‘elite, white-progressives of the northeast Atlantic coast. Maybe we should begin using it. It will drive them crazy having their own manufactured word thrown in their face! White, Anglo-Saxon and Progressive = WASP!
