Let's put aside gay's thread and discuss smth else.

Let's discuss attitude to citizenship and to national morale.
So feel free to answer.

I feel myself like a citizen of the world

I don't think any country really has a sense or togetherness or common purpose except possibly during an international sport event. Not sure quite what the poll has to do with the thread.

I'd be inclined to say that anyone declares themselves a 'citizen of the world' without having done a fuckload of traveling is kidding themselves.

I'm British. I've never lived anywhere but England and I've never spent more than two weeks at a time in another country so I'm not going to pretend that I'm anything more expansive than that.

I call myself an American but what I really mean is USA citizen. Unlike Canadian, Mexican, Brazilian, etc, there isn't really a good name for someone who lives in the USA except maybe arrogant. ;)

I am proud to be an American. Having said that, I have traveled a good deal outside the country and have enjoyed myself and loved being in other countries. I truly loved being in Italy, I love the people of Ireland, Being in Jamaica was a blast, etc. I also felt like I was being looked at as one big dollar sign in a whole lot of places because my first husband, especially, wanted only to go to touristy places.

I like meeting people, I don't like a lot of people that come from a lot of places just because they are awful people who happen to come from a lot of different places LOL.

Funnily enuf I talked about this with Joe the other day. I would leave the U.S. and live elsewhere-the important thing is to be with my husband. But I can't imagine ever not loving the country I was born in.

I just consider myself to be. Nothing more really. What we address our selves as will always change as the mind set or circumstance changes. I suppose one is no more relevant than the other so why discriminate at all.
