AYRT Well that's my bad I guess. Where I am in the UK country and cottagecore are identical aesthetically.

nayrt - It's an easy mistake. In the U.S., "country" is more... Southern culture, as in cowboys, boots, bbq, country music, pick up trucks, etc. We don't have the same English cottage culture or village life as the UK does.

AYRT In retrospect that is obvious. Still, something about the term 'cottagecore ' makes me grind my teeth lol.

Oh, I don't blame you. Anything with -core at the end just makes me roll my eyes.

nayrt: -core is one of those suffixes that really need to be retired, along with -gate and -punk.

DA

I'm also in the US, but it's different in my experience.

What you've described with the cowboy boots and country music and pick up trucks is just...redneck, not country.

Country is more like...upper class, grand estates, horse farms, rolling green hills, mint juleps, fancy outfits, everything very prim and proper...kind of rich and snobby, honestly.

At least that's how the people I know use those terms.

nayrt: Well, specifically a commercialized product that's been bent to selling conservative politics to middle-class white people along with their beer and mostly-unnecessary-in-suburbia big trucks. Unfortunately there's Southern Culture(tm) and southern culture, the lowercase version is a lot more diverse and rocks harder, but usually gets erased in these discussions.
