I thought that upper-middle class men pay a lot of attention to their real 
physical appearance.  If you`re  under 40, you`re not slim and fairly 
muscular and you don`t have good teeth, your upper-middle class credentials 
are in doubt.  I don`t think that clothing is the key to class 
identification.  Any yahoo can wear nice clothes...
