Dave,
I think you missed the part where I mention lesbian, and other labels. The point of the article is to show that there are many labels. Some of them are bad, and some aren't. I was raising the point that we need to also embrace labels as to not obliterate who we are and loose the fact that we are a diverse community. BTW... white, black, blonde, etc are labels. They are used in jokes in both derogetory and not so bad jokes.
Like some friends say.. a label is a label is a label is a label. Physicality, and outward as well as inward descriptors are essentially labels.

Small liberal children.. heck I don't think they know what all those mean yet. You might scare some moderate and liberal parents though!

I never actually put down my labels!
Christian, woman, white, Mom, divorced/remarried, musician, gastric bypass patient, real blonde - fake redhead <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />, rape survivor, depressive, control freak.
There's way more - but trying to sum it up in one and two word phrases is near impossible! <img src="/images/graemlins/tongue2.gif" alt="" />

And those who don't vote, don't have a right to complain in my opinion. If you care, you'd vote.. even if you don't like any of the candidates!
just my 5 cents ;0)

Hey Jase, Till I read your article I hated labels, fought hard against them, now you and my girlfriend are right, it is time to embrace them. Let's see...my label....hum....not done this before.....here goes....Mom, bisexual, feme, pagan, healer, friend, tattooed, Scot/Irish redhead that follows the old ways and all that entails. I also am a voter.

Try reading "The Translucent Revolution". Where you define something you create it's opposite. Life is limitless! Evolve, change into an undefinable and unlimited spirit. [color:"purple"] [/color]
