Texas is a 2 at most. At least the area I live in. People still think Busch is the best beer under the sun. Ewww!!! Houston, I think has a better tollerance overall, at around a 3. I hate living in the south. If you don't fit into a "mold" then you are an outsider. I can't tell you how bad it is just being made fun of for being from "the north." If they hold that against me....what will they think about a crossdressing yankee? LOL.
