There are women who appreciate the finer things in life and hope for fairy tale endings; then, there are women who expect nothing beneath the best or less than picture perfect, commonly known as siddity.
Often used to describe women who are “uppity” or “put on-airs,” whether or not the term is derogatory is left to the interpreter. Some wear the title proudly while others struggle to appear “down,” because being siddity comes with pros and cons. Seemingly high-class women are thought to be exclusive and, therefore, have a tendency to attract checklist men (college-educated, solid career, good family, etc.). On the other hand, people are inclined to believe they are judgmental and unapproachable.
Sound like your life in two sentences? It just may be. Here are 12 signs you qualify as siddity:
