    Well, it massivelly depends on social class - the higher it goes, the worst it gets - plus it’s more of an English thing.

    Even in England, for example a working class scouse (somebody from Liverpool) is unlikelly to be a two faced bastard:

    Somewhat violent? - possibly.

    Prejudiced, maybe even racist? - quite likely.

    A bastard? - you can ask his mom but you’ll probably get punched.

    Two faced? - not likely.

    IMHO it’s unsurprising that back in the days when social mobility was still decent in Britain and young working class lads actually had a real chance to make it in the Arts, the country made some of its best music and had its most iconic bands - you’re not going to get something like Punk from kids born with a golden spoon in their mouths.
