Well, yes, and there's a certain guilty pleasure in creating a bigot who completely believes they represent the only possible way, let alone the right one - my Saturday character was like that, and that was the fun part. I can do sexist matriarchalist with the best of them :>. The problem was that she had no traits I could really express within the LARP that were in any way relatable to anything I think or feel - I suppose, no hook I could hang her on. I suspect it was the way she was written - I couldn't understand her enough to construct her, if that makes sense. There was no "in" to the character, at least of the kind my personal role-playing style seems to need. Which I am cheerfully able to admit is probably a flaw in my personal role-playing style, alas.
