yeah, I kinda answered my own question in post #8, and get the why he did it part, it was the feeling of being 'proud' I couldn't understand.

As Eddy said, just a poor choice of word - 'unashamed' would fit better imo, but hey, each to their own.

I'll give a real-world example of a bunch of misunderstood, and ostracised people: I'm unashamed of being an alcoholic, but if I came out and said I was 'proud' to be one, that just doesn't make sense.
