Taking pride in it or being ashamed of it is meaningless. You did not vote to be whom you are or what. You did not have a say in it. If you are lacking in certain traits you had no choice. Period. End of story. Do you blame a snake for being a snake and not a kitten? Do you blame an apple for being an apple and not kidney beans? Of course not! It would be ludicrous and absurdly illogical to do so.
