For me, this stuff isn't about the South because bigotry and the status quo did not begin and end with the South. It's just more overt and traditionalized in the South. I notice that on GC almost every topic turns into a regional thing or whatever (I'm not well versed in what all that stuff means, including the acronyms like SEC). But it seems that most GCers are okay with these rants as long as it stays away from *gasp* gender, race or other more pertinent social discussions that impact college students and Greeks.
Anyway...some of us from the South (even if it's not the Deep South) get annoyed with people justifying everything with "well, I'm a Southerner." Give me a break.
