Protective Coloring
Humans are a weird species.
Yeah, I know, that’s probably not a shock, but let me give you an example.
You may have noticed that if you hang around people with a particular accent or way of speaking, you start to pick it up, and sound more like them the more time you spend with them.
I guess its like protective coloring. We want to belong, to not stand out.
Like I knew a fellow who moved from Canada to Nashville, and within a year, he was you’alling like a native, and there are other examples I could give you.
