ORIGINAL: RiotGirl So nobody likes labels, except for me. i LIKE labels. Its how i organize my bookcase. Its how i organize everything. Its how when i look in my head, i make the pieces fit into the overall puzzle. i like specific labels, heck i label things as i see fit. My book case has hardbacks and paper backs and tall books, short books, and books about this. Yes and i look at these books, and i SEE its got a hard back and i say to myself, that there is a hardback book. Its label has a definition to me, and easy one that most others would agree with. i've language books.. and they go in my "language" section. Never had anyone disagree with me about my french books being labeled wrong and in the wrong section. Some of them do have multi lables, multi layered laybels. "Hardback, non fiction, parenting, tall" "paperback, tall, fiction, stephen king" And i group things together and i know PRECISELY where it all fits. Where it goes. Top shelf and second from the bottom shelf. i even group my sections with other LIKE things. As in my gambling books arent near my reglious books. LOL i label everything in life this way, to a point. My dishes, my animal cabinet, whatever. People too and even i. Most dont like labels, but i do. Call it a personal prefence, but i do think that most have some sort of "labeling" that goes on in their head. Person walks down the street.. its a male.. goes in the male group and so on. Problem is. i lost my label. i NEED my label, its how the world goes round and round in my head (ketchup too) And if you dont like labels, thats fine, not asking anyone to live how i live. i mean i'm like Dominant with the other slave, not really a slave, but a slave with Master, alot of vanilla interaction, but with alot of slave rules. i just dont know quite where i fit. i am confused. though i doubt many others have this problem, i thought i'd throw it out there anyways. Greetings, My Master and I have talked about this very subject alot lately. How we would label ourselves, how he labels us,and how others label us. I personally have not ever been a fan of labels. Labels seem to confine people. I also see ALOT of people screaming, " well you can not be this or that because you do not do it like everyone else!" qoute: And i group things together and i know PRECISELY where it all fits. Where it goes. Top shelf and second from the bottom shelf. i even group my sections with other LIKE things. As in my gambling books arent near my reglious books. LOL end qoute What happens if something or someone does not fit into your label? My Master has defined us perfectly. We are mutts. Although I am atrained as a gorean slave, have lived rt as a gorean slave, he is not a gorean Master, we implement many of the gorean philosophies, but we also break some blantantly. We are also best friends, fiance's, parents, then you add in other labels such as goth,and wiccan. Labels have their place, however; I define me. My Master defines me, us. Not the label that others put on myself, him, or our relationship. Nika{Phoenix} His Gothic Slave
