just a little. almost rant below

very. hm. to me that lots of ppl on the internet are so comfortable trying to like. diagnose people with mental illness/etc or push certain labels in general(often microlabels that are just,,, unnecessary) when the person is already comfortable in their identity.

i get it in the case of someone specifically asking for help/input from others or perhaps in the case of physical illness(i got an anon a while back that brought to my attention that lupus is a thing and i was just like. wait. hang on a second). but if people express that they're already fine with how they label themselves don't go suggesting new things???

#and if its a case of. some freak just completely not getting the definition of a sexuality or something. just block and move on #the general obsession online lgbt+ communities have with labels is. eugh #i literally only id the way i do bc nb bi is. very broad. nb is an umbrella term and bi encompasses what i think i feel well enough #ppl constantly pitching microlabels to me when i was younger made it so much harder to actually discover myself too #also the notion that you can only REALLY have ever been one thing . like. ok what if i actually was [label] when i used that label???#what if i changed??????#also i dont inherently have anything against microlabels like. if defining your sexuality/gender in a specific way works for you go for it #not rlly my thing. though sometimes i may joke about being a gender hoarder lmao
