Labels aren't made up to oppress people, they exist to identify differences, if you have a label you don't like, the world has percieved something about you you don't like, suck it up and move on.


They can still have an effect on people, especially if that label means the bearer is treated differently than they would have been otherwise.

Well yeah, that's applicable to everything.

What people normally do is hide facts they don't want to be labelled with, or live with the label and accept the natural reaction to that. It is not on the table to reveal yourself as under particular label then tell people to suspend disbelief and act like it's not there. That's not a sane thing to do and discredits other people who share the label, making it an even less desirable title.

The labels will always exist as it's how we process reality, so the only thing you can do is change the significance in public perception. If you deny reality, you gain the label of "lunatic".
