    You are who you are, whether you publicly label yourself as it or not. Others recognizing how I feel, and what I want, has nothing to do with whether it is legitimate or not.

    they can be.

    How so?

      Labeling myself helps me understand myself better and finding others like me.

      People coming together for a shared cause/feeling/purpose is a community. That’s like saying knitting isn’t a community.
