We, as a people, we have a strong need to categorize everything. We put labels on everything and it's a totally understandable need because we are animals and we need to understand order and where to fit in.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think we have to get beyond the idea that we have to categorize people.
I love finding - or inventing - ways to categorize people.
We are a species that must try to impose and find systems - systems of thought, ways of organizing and categorizing reality.
Class, race, sexuality, gender and all other categories by which we categorize and dismiss each other need to be excavated from the inside.
I never liked feeling like the world needed to have labels on everything, whether it's people or categories of music. I think everyone should be what they want to be, and you shouldn't have to look a certain way in order to fit this mold or that mold.
We would have been happy if we could have assigned just three categories, large, medium, and small; the point is, we wanted to avoid personal judgments. It actually turned out to be quite a finely tuned scale.
I love taxonomies, categories, ways of dividing people into groups.
The idea is to be unrestrained by categories.
I have worked really hard to defy categorization, to break down a taxonomy whenever it comes my way.
I don't like labels. I don't understand the need for them. When you define yourself a certain way, people have expectations.
