| Is the term Yankee derogatory? No. Neither is Redneck. The term Redneck implies a hard working American hence the red neck. |

It implies an ignorant, backwards American, once farmers and now usually construction workers. Hard to see the necks, though, since most have mullets.
And, yes, yankee is a derogatory term. Damned yankees. |
