So when you label a person(including yourself) as "stupid" or "libertarian" or even "open minded", you're restricting that person's potential to adapt to the chaos of life.

Without labels how do we describe things? How do we discuss things?

We need to label things, but we don't need to make it an addiction.

calling someone a dancer now does not mean they can’t be a plumber in the future. Labeling them now does not limit what they do in the future.

Of course some labels are more restrictive than others. Anything with the suffix "ist" is particularly sticky.

If someone feels “restricted” by what another person thinks of them, that sounds like a personal issue. Gotta get over that.

That I agree with. I guess I'm talking more about labeling yourself. Big difference between calling yourself a "musician" and a "feminist", or even a "capitalist".

why label them as a person? maybe they feel like a wolf?
replied 2343d
I believe him when he says that in all ways expect physical he is a wolf. Somewhere out in the great plains there is a wolf that is a human in all ways except physical as well.

hahaha. who knows maybe he'll be a modern day Romulus and Remus?
replied 2343d
Rome would have become Reme if only that brother won out:)

hmm I just saw the word label as a classifying phrase. thus describing the person as they are now.
