It's hard to find any, since like I said - the writers are fairly inconsistent about it. And while class is a huge part of Hilda's situation, her appellation 'Hilda the Mongrel' kind of implies that race is a significant aspect of it. At any rate, if I am reading too much into it, then I would say my ignoring a taboo that isn't actually there is the correct attitude to have.
