Dunno, I’m not their psychologist and I’m not being snarky.

I think many are proud of it. Some though may not think it fits within the norms of their social group. Works both ways. Trust me being an anti Trumper can be a hard lift with many of those you deal with in this area. Some, like me really don’t care. Other more sensitive souls may. I don’t think anyone is threatened or feels threatened it’s just not something that you want to advertise, like when you have to fart in church.
