I'm not sure about your lady, but I think with mine, she takes a certain pride in her heritage, which I think we all do. I'm originally from Nova scotia, now living in Ontario, I often let the Nova scotia part come out when talking about such things! :-)

She does take a pride in it but I think has more pride in her adopted home town now. I do like to insult her original village to get a rise out of her, lol
