A thought came to mind today that might summarize or expand what I've mentioned earlier: Pride is a status detector. It seeks to maintain a person's beliefs about their status in society. Thus why a proud person takes it as an insult to be treated as having a lower status than they perceive themselves to have. Nothing is more offensive to a proud person than to be treated as an equal to those around them.
