I have to say that the vicar's daughters I have known have been both very flexible and not at all straight laced, but that's a story for an entirely different sort of publicationI believe there's a song about the gender flipped version.

You tend to get two sorts of Vicar's daughters - they either buy deeply into what they've brought up with or go overboard the other way rebelliously.
