                (adj.) having the demeanor of a stereotypical (American) White, Anglo-Saxon, Protestant (abbrev [WASP]).
                The stereotype of [WASPs] is that they have high social status and a disproportionate amount of political power.
                Example:
                A white guy of English and Protestant background who was raised in a -million mansion in a place like Darien, Connecticut, or [Atherton], California, and whose father was a senator and grandfather a governor; whose family has lived in the States for 30 generations; and whose entire family attended Ivy-League or Ivy-League-caliber universities. This guy is a quintessential WASP.
                Someone who is WASPy is someone who comes across as this sort of person.
                Caution:
                One need not be a WASP in order to be WASPy. A WASP refers to any American who is white and of English and Protestant heritage, so even a poor, degenerate [meth head] in [Appalachia] could be a WASP. Rather, someone who is WASPy is simply someone who seems to fit [the WASP] stereotype.
                For example:
                Many Americans would consider the Kennedys WASPy even though their religious background alone [precludes] them from the designation of WASPs, as the Kennedys are Catholic.
