"Classy" does nice things that no one knows about. "Classy" says thank you and means it.

Finally, class can't be bought. Just ask Gatsby.

Example:

During my time here on the this site I have met and talked to alot of great people and like you men have your "To do list" I know I personally have a "To see list". I have spend alot of time talking and getting to know one hobbyist and we were to meet tonight and due to an unavoidable situation our "date" has been put on hold and I want this man to know how disappointed I am to know you are finally so close yet so far and I know we will meet soon...But know you are a great guy from our conversations and I look forward to meeting you and seeing exactly what you can handle..(private joke)....If there is someone you want to send a special message to feel free to do so on this thread....wicked frown...
Very classy

I think its all about attitude. This is a fairly overused word I see in ad's all the time, often quite comical, Ive seen ads that said "I'm classy" and in the picture there spread eagle in a hotel bathroom mirror lol If your having to say you are you probably aren't. lol however there are some exceptions, I do know some that say they are and well...they are
Its all in how you carry yourself and personal behavior that makes you classy

Without Class you get......only ass!
If a person is "classy", then he or she strives to ensure the people that surround them feel comfortable at all times.

However, "classiness" may be an overrated virtue.

I mean, there is a time and place to treat everyone with respect (in business settings, etc.)

However, I've been noticing that more openness and honesty exist in the personal realm. I guess that's a good thing. I mean people should be able to freely express themselves in a personal setting. Right?

To me class is no bullshit honesty. To be able to stand on the true you. Anything else is just a cover.
