This is another example of one of those questions that should never, ever, have to be asked.

But our silly culture grants more respect to real scum than to someone that has a different self expression that is not in line with narrow social constructs.

I personally have thought many times of doing away with Pythos and fall into "regular dude" mode for good. But then the ONLY reason I would do that is to go along to get along...something that too many good people end up doing.

Forget that.
