This shit is common sense. Was a take really necessary? Guess where labels come from? Sterotypes which are formed when a majority of people or things can be grouped into one catagory. This whole take gave me no information at all.
If you're looking to be taught , then read a book or go back to school. This take was for those who constantly wish others would drop their labels or see them as something else. This take was to encourage those sets of people that i see on gag
So you want people to disregard a true statement just because it hurts their feelings? Grow up. I'm not going to spend my life tiptoeing around people like you just because I don't want to hurt your precious feelings.
Ummm, that's not what I said. Example - if someone calls me a slut , based on the way I dress. How accurate is that? Why should I let that define me? There's nothing I can do about them calling me those names but what I can do is be the best version of myself and represent myself according to what I know is true about me. Example - Your whole approach would be labeled a jerk and a jackass. Since your behavior shows nothing other than that , you are true according to your label
I completely agree that you shouldn't let a label *define* you. That that is not *all* you are. But it is part of who you are. I didn't read the whole Take. I just saw the pictures that were implying that it was wrong to categorize people as "black" or "gay", when that's what they are. As you said, the strings of negative implications that fall behind those are what's wrong.
But. At the same time. Someone would look at me and assume I probably don't speak Chinese. And they would be right. Because most white people don't speak Chinese.
There comes a point when labels are acceptable and then a point where they aren't. Either way people should define themselves beyond what they appear to be to others.
Agree with you, Let's hi5 and forget about those labels. Don't worried I don't hate you, I don't even know you yet. If you treat me like a friend, I'd like be your friend and happy new year to you😊

Oh! That makes much more sense.
Yes finally complete agree with this
Another woman trying to rationalize that she isn't a slut.
Ladies and gents , these are comments you will make when reading comprehension has failed you. Totally fly by the point.
I'm not white? >.>
You are. But aren't you more than you pigment? Does that define you?
*your pigment

I suppose so.
We all have a label
Hello there!
Are we still head to head?
Nope, I just saying my opimion, And I don't mind have a label. Plus I already have some labels 😜
Yes. I agree we all have labels as stated in my article. But let's not allow these labels to define us , instead let's define ourselves.
