I fall under this "WHAM" category too, but I don't advertise this fact. This is basically offensive. A few reasonable interpretations: "I'm proud of being white" --> "Thank ... I'm not [black | Asian | ...]" "I'm proud to be heterosexual" --> "I'd hate to be a poof" "I'm proud to be a male" -> "Males are better. It's good to be a male". Is it actually your intention to offend people, or aren't you aware that this is offensive? When did I last see you demonstrating against a "Gay Pride" or "Black Pride" parade ? Clearly, you'd consider those to be offensive as well. Carl Edman
