Ah the joy of stereotypes and paradoxes. I figure we are what we are and we like what we like. I don't know that we owe it to other people to live up to their stereotypes of what we ought to be.
I'm a Colombian/American of Spanish, German, Welsh and Scot-Irish decent mostly and I always feel weird about my ethnicity. For instance I'm Roman Catholic and always wanted to be straight up Irish and Scottish instead of Scot-Irish so I would fit in better with other stereotypical American Catholics. Honestly, I love my Protestant ancestors because they're part of me. I don't know much about the whole thing with Catholics and Protestants in Ireland but isn't it somehow the fault of the English?
Is it normal to have this tattoo?
