I feel that. But I don't think labels hold much sway, at least for me they don't. They obviously carry weight for others. In my experience I've known a lotta people to say that they are a lotta things only to learn with time that what they said really isn't the case. What I'm saying is that just 'cause you say you are this...I cannot reliably make any assumptions about you based on said statement. I could make assumptions but they might prove to be unreliable. So I prefer the waiting game when it comes to judging (not read condemning) people. Plus, people are far more dimensional than a given handful of actions or things said; initial judgements/opinions are always subject to change anyway.
