I am undecided about the truth in this Alexander Pope quote, it made me ponder, I thought it worthy food for thought.

Pride is the most terrible of vices, because fools are convinced that it is a good thing.
It doesn't help that the meaning of words changes over time. We must remember that it is certainly fine to be proud of something (such as a child), but we must remember our place and hold to humility above all things.
We call the care of our children's accomplishments 'pride', but in reality it is simply a love for their blessings and accomplishments: a joy.
Pride is a self-serving happiness, and a deification of one's own ego. Fools, both willing and ignorant, embrace this vice and glorify it.

Pride goes before destruction,
And a haughty spirit before a fall.

I am a heterosexual female....and I am comfortable with my lifestyle.
If a Prideful person of either gender....has an issue with my choice.....then that is a difference of opinion....not a failing.

Pride is the root of all sin...the original sin.
