Why don’t people say where they’re from on SW?

I am from the US. Sometimes my country does things that I am ashamed of, but I am still American. Knowing where you’re from makes it easier for others in the SW family to communicate with you… to know what additional information you may require, and what time zone you may be in. I am simply referring to the fact that it’s not listed on many profiles. Most people will tell you if you ask.

In my experience, lots of people mention where they are from in their posts and comments, even mentioning what part of their country they live in, when it is relevant to the topic.

@DrWatson I am just asking why they hide it in the first place ?
