Down here in y'all land (buckle of the Bible Belt) I am not a Yankee to these people. A Yankee is from the Northeast. Whether this refers to personality or location, I am not sure. I may have been a Yankee 30 years ago when I moved here. Thirty years have made some changes. The natives have finally accepted most of "us". Yankee here is apt to be used as a derogatory description.
