You often hear the term thrown about in conversation but what does it actually mean? Trailer trash (or trailer park trash) is a derogatory term for people of low socio-economic standing. (Close synonymn for poor white trash).
Because trailers often provide housing at a lower cost than conventional foundation-built house, there is a popular cultural conception that those who live in trailer parks are usually only those who are too poor to afford anything else. It originates from the belief that those of low standing within society often reside in trailers or mobile homes, especially in trailer parks.
How do you know if you are Trailer Trash? First of all you don’t need to live in a trailer to be trailer trash, and only a small percentage of people who actually do live in a trailer are considered trailer trash and their characteristics are… annoying, loud mouths, dirty houses and clothes, greasy hair, their kids are out of control, and/or just plain lazy.
Are you a person who seems well-suited to residential life in a mobile home park and is distinguished by poor hygiene, foul language, slovenly or slutty clothing, and general ignorance? Do your recreations include drinking malt liquor in lawn chairs under tattered R.V. awnings and teenage pregnancy?
Used in a sentence:
“Bambi acts like such trailer trash when she chugs malt liquor and belches.”
“It is so embarrassing hanging around her; she is straight up trailer trash. “
“She can clean it up, but underneath she’s still trailer trash.”
