Why does Facebook login use proxymail email, even when user selects to share their actual email?

I'm not sure if this is happening on Meta.OSQA.net, but it's happening for myself and sites like LockerGnome.net and Moms4Mom.com

When I try to login via Facebook, I select to share my email address (see screenshot below).

But instead of grabbing my actual email address, it still uses the proxymail account.

The problem is that the emails are not going through this proxymail account, for my site, LockerGnome.net and Moms4Mom.com.

Shouldn't it be possible to grab the user's email address if they select to share it? See: https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/355
