Petit bourgeois is an internet slang term used to describe someone who is considered to have a narrow or conservative mindset, often associated with middle-class values and aspirations. It can be used to criticize individuals who prioritize material possessions, conformism, and conformity to societal norms over individuality or intellectual pursuits.
Example 1:
Person A: Did you see that post about the new luxury car John bought? He’s always showing off his wealth.
Person B: Yeah, he’s such a petit bourgeois. He cares more about material possessions than anything else.
Example 2:
Person A: I’m thinking of pursuing a career in art, but my parents want me to become a doctor.
Person B: Don’t let their petit bourgeois mentality dictate your choices. Follow your passion and do what makes you happy.
