Labels



Wouldn't the world be a wonderful place if we could shed labels like black, white, Latino, Asian, gay, bisexual or lesbian? We like to imagine — assume, even — that humanity will only ever continue to progress socially and technologically and that one day such distinctions will blur into a pleasant haze of meaninglessness. Are labels really necessary? We se them all the time, but should we?

    Many people use the labels on themselves. It's only when we use them for each other that we get into trouble.

    Back in the mid 90's I established at my work place (or elsewhere) that my sexuality was 'not a topic'. If you weren't there then you didn't really need to know. Nothing about that has changed.

    Life without labels is like being whole with your own mind. Own it.
