You know its like one guy I ran across years ago who said he was proud to be gay, and in my mind I was like, your gay, who cares, be gay don’t be gay, thats on you man, same with color.
Do you really know why whites don't go around saying "I'm proud to be white?" They don't NEED to. That whole thing is just a defense mechanism, a cover-up for an inferiority complex. I hate to say it, but it's true.
As my mother once said, "Empty barrels make the loudest noise."
