I know that is up to me, and there was a time in which I thought that liking women made me lesbian. But after finding out about trixic, I got the trixic label. Now I don’t know what I can be, what should I be? What if I don’t want to have any label or identity? As in, “I just like women”.
All these labels do is create problems.
Just exist, be happy, and everyone else can fuck off and worry about themselves.
Life is too short to chase trends and do what you think everyone else expects from you. Fuck it.
You like a bit of this and that. Who cares. Why box yourself into a specific category. Over your lifetime your opinions will change anyway.
Fucking lgbtqiat+!?-, just be. 8 billion unique people, who wants to be like everybody else.
Labels are a convenient shorthand. But they’re only useful if the person you’re talking to understands the shorthand. So for niche cases, no, they’re not always useful.
Your advice is good, but labels aren’t always a problem. Even if someone doesn’t use labels themselves, it can be helpful to at least know what they are. For example, if you see a thread, magazine, comment etc. using a label that others often apply to people like you, then you know that it might be relevant to your interests.
