Perhaps.
I just know that, as the years go by, the less I want to do with the whole "TCMA" stygma.
I am not chinese, never will be, nor do I want to be.
I don't care about the clothes or traditions that much, I am a simple guy when it cames to MA. You won't see me part of a lion dance or doing a demo or part of a "sect", it is not me and never will be.
And personally I think that those are the things that give TCMA a "bad name" and make to many round eye think that are "chinese".
