my red-head dad wasn't like that - in all my life, i've never witnessed anyone in my family try to "fit in," with the exceptions of my sister & me in our pimply teenage years... my parents have always been "different," & they love it - different from each other & everyone else around them. my dad gets the biggest kick out of telling people he's originally from Iraq - he likes to watch their eyes widen in disbelief - their mental images of "Iraqis" shot down. my dad's never been officially "white" in his mind, & he never really cared about it. but then again, he's a bit of a snob that way.
