What is it with Texas that it tricks people into thinking it rocks, what lives underneath?

It is the very basic emotion of insecurity, Fragony.
Texas is The United States version of Germany, you know, that odd cousin showing up at family dinners, but who you have very little in common with, and do not want to be associated with.
One of the main reasons behind this insecurity shown among texans is of course the cult of masculinity.
Cowboys, in the old days, often heerded their cattle south. They went months and months without seeing a woman. It is thus natural that only the men who could adapt to an enviroment where women were replaced by cows and other men, made it all the way down to Texas.
This then became a safe haven for this kind of people, and you can still see a lot of men there still proudly wearing their cowboy hats, a hidden signal to other people of their kind.
I think people who feel the need to insinuate others arelatenthomosexuals are the truly insecure. Who's the person who goes around with flags to represent his 'conquests' after all?
That's a sign of insecurity.

Kadgar is right, I posted this thread because I am infact a homosexual.

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

I like the Texan philosophy that Texas is awesome/amazing, it gets annoying for me how it seems very few other states have actual pride for their state government, and proceed to not a give a crap about anything except the presidential election. Maybe if Californians had more respect for their state we would not have DGAF'd on our state elections and let the state get into billions of dollars of debt.
