      Not really an Insult but more of an inclination that someone needs the blessing. Like if someone is bout to go do something stupid you'd say bless their heart as in they need it cause they're clearly stupid.

      Perhaps you grew up none the wiser because you never had opportunity to learn the true meaning due to your grandmothers not having the heart to tell you after saying it to you for so many years.

    The Texas accent in Austin died out after the Baby Boomers, unless you live in south Austin. As a kid in 1970’s and 1980’s NW Austin suburbs, most of us talked like nothing or from Southern California. Richard Linklatter has always been very realistic of his portrayal of younger folks in the Austin area.

    Bless your heart is not always an insult.
    For example it can be used endearingly toward small children you think are adorable, eg: " oh look at them, aren't they adorable! Bless their little hearts."
    Generally something that a grandmother might say.
    A mother might say this to her child who she lost lost track of for a long time to express relief and joy when the child finally reappears.
    I think that it is generally seen as an insult when directed towards adults in the proper context because of this patronizing. element.

    Texans don’t use ALL y’all like that unless they are asking a question or bossing a group of people. Like, “ Are all y’all gonna go to my house? All y’all need to remember to blah blah blah. I know it seems insignificant but “ hey all y’all” as a greeting sounds weird. Nobody I can recall greets a group using all y’all. It’s just hey y’all no matter the amt of people if it’s over two people. But I feel like other states use y’all too don’t they? 😅

    Is this very true or just a stereotype?

      Borderline stereotype, like it’s true but the “rules” are more fluid and based on context.

    Just for your information not all Texan’s have a southern accent, own several firearms, drive a pickup truck, walk around with a cowboy hat and chew tobacco. There are lots of Texans who live in the larger cities who are nothing like this.
