Why wouldn't it?

My husbands cousin was born in England his parents are both English but his grandparents are Irish and he considers himself Irish because of that, he's just got himself an Irish passport and supports the Irish teams etc and that's perfectly fine imo

If they are so proud of their heritage why do they not wear their hair in the afro they were born with ? why do they choose to hide the afro under a straight (cheap) wig ..They can't be THAT proud of their roots

I don't see the point that you're trying to make. You're suggesting that, because they're not sporting what they were "born with", they're not proud of their culture? So, what then, because I wear makeup, does that mean I'm not proud to be a woman, by your logic?

Answer: No, it doesn't. That would be ridiculous.
