My seeming too " sensitive" is part of the problem if you want to call it that with electronic communication.

Totally agree.  That's exactly how I feel when someone calls me "unamerican" or "american wannabe".

The voice others hear when they read my posts isn't my voice, it's one of theirs that they assign to me such that I can be easily pigeon-holed to fit their limited experience/understanding.
