And frankly, she's trying to work through a lot of things related to self-hatred.
I understand why it's fun to bash on her, but as a deeply Southern woman - who has a strong love and affinity for her heritage, I still repect the fact that this girl is trying to come to terms with the fact she's been taught by a variety of media that to be Southern is to be "ig'nant." As a result, she has tried to distance herself from that, and is just now coming to grips with the fact that one has nothing to do with the other.
None of us are perfect. We're all pigs. As it were.
