I didn't ask for this! none of us do, I think, but if someone had said to me "you're a mutant, choose your powers!" I certainly would never have said "oh, please make me purple! please!"
and that is what separates me from them. I know I can hurt them and get away with it and never get caught. I also know it's wrong and am too proud to sink down to their level. I have self respect.
