Redneck American Princess
A woman from the rural United States, with the greatest prevalence being in the South and Deep South.
The Redneck American Princess (or “Rap”) is characterized by a jarring combination of arrogance and profound timidity. She oftentimes suffers from having been one of the most attractive women in her hometown high school, but not having the looks or sophistication to thrive anywhere outside of the tri-county area. A traditionalist of convenience, she will alternate between overwhelming unpleasantness (“sassiness”) and a fainting-couch femininity that demands her boyfriend/husband/brother/father or any other man in proximity resolve all her problems, preferably without her having to ask. The latter is oftentimes the product of an extreme daddy’s-little-girl mentality that remains with the Rap until she dies of old age or develops dementia so profound that she forgets she ever had a father.
The Rap is particularly eager to start fights between men and finds the thought of one (or more) of them dying to preserve her honor to be overwhelmingly attractive. The Rap may marry, but she is unlikely to remain that way—a result of her demanding disposition. Unfortunately, she has no close female friends to which she can turn when her LTRs end. Ordinary women tire of her constant self-pity, and other Raps are too busy indulging in their own star-crossed view of life to offer more than a passing sympathy mixed with a brutal competitiveness as to who has suffered more.

MAN: I saw Tiffany Jo Anne down by gas station the other day. Both her boyfriends were beating each other with tire irons and cans of diesel. Seems like wherever she goes, trouble follows.
