not saying one should be ashamed of ones disabilities

But that's the point though. In our (at least western because that's the ones I'm familiar with) societies it is shameful to have disabilities. And pride is the opposite of shame. It's resistance against the norm

I get what you're saying, but the way I look at it is as a protest. A recognition that we're here, despite society's best efforts to sweep us under the rug
