And whenever some one says it as a pejorative it comes across like class guilt to me... Like privileged people guilty about their own privilege... Cause poor people generally don't actually talk like that. Like Bat said, blacks say bougie.

But I'm not rich. I talk like that. I use it mostly to shame people for stupid hierarchical thinking.
Edit: The evils of being part of the bourgeoisie isn't the privilege to me, it's really the self righteous and oppressive hierarchical ideologies they tend to push.
