Mackem was a term coined by Newcastle fans aimed at taking the piss out of people from Sunderland based on how we talk. It wasn't that long ago everyone from the North East was calling themselves a Geordie. I'm glad they coined the term though, as it distinguishes us from these celebrating wannabe who call themselves a 'Geordie' in order to intentionally stereotype themselves. It makes them really stupid and cringeworthy though.

It's the way we talk so I don't find it a put down.
Feckin hell, there's loads of way more embarrassing accents/ways of pronouncing things around the country ffs.

Being proud of your roots and identity is nothing to be ashamed of marra. Well, unless you are convinced your area is classed as its own nation, with its own messiah and that your sense of humour is unique and world renowned.
