Self-Love. A healthy high ego.
It gets mistaken for arrogance.
Bootleg Vanity - if you really like how you look, but you don’t take it seriously and it’s light-hearted. Then your friends know you’re bullshitting them they just do whatever, but they’re cool about it.
High-End Vanity - a healthy selfish. Putting yourself before others to do what's best for you.
Vanity - the mirror thing where you want to kiss yourself and you actually mean it.
It can fluctuate, change and/or evolve over time.

Vanity Identities
by Dr. Bota November 16, 2021
Get the Vanity Identities mug.Some underground or obscure band (or band obscure to the fans' larger peer group) that someone likes only because they can act elitist and sophisticated OR they can they say they like something unique different from everyone else. In bad cases, should the band break into the mainstream, they will suddenly disavow their fanship.
As a phenomenon, the term can be applied to individual artists. Most associated with genres with strong anti-authoritarian tendencies like punk, indie rock or hip hop, but can be applied to a wide range of situations, like random American fans of J-pop who really only like it because they can feel special, in contrast to true appreciators.
Sometimes associated with hipsters, or rather, their imitators.
Nevertheless everyone needs a dose of identity band sometimes. The opposite excess, where your playlist is entirely composed of songs off the top 40 lists, is a much worse sin.

It doesn't matter how massively popular Coldplay is, Arjun is self-confident enough that he doesn't have an identity band crisis for liking them.
Person 1: I liked Kid Cudi and Kanye better when they were underground.
Person 2: Please tell me you're not into that insecure identity band shit.

Get the identity band mug.An Identity lifestyle is similar to a gender or sexual identity, but for one's lifestyle. Is typically something the 'common' person doesn't engage in as a lifestyle and is not considered or accepted as a culture by the masses (this does NOT include harmful or illegal hobbies, interests, etc). It becomes an identity when you decide to embrace it as a part of who you are and how you live. It can be something you decide to be as (one or more of) your identity lifestyle(s), or something you feel you were called to/born for/etc. Examples of things that could/should be considered under the identity lifestyle umbrella can be: The furry community, Witchcraft/Wicca community, Kin community, Age regression community, and so forth.
Kelly: Hey Sam, I heard from your boyfriend that you came out with your lifestyle identity last week.
Sam: Yeah, recently I discovered that my lifestyle identity is Wicca.
Kelly: I'm happy for you! I discovered my lifestyle identity last year, I've never felt so in touch with myself.

Get the identity baiting mug.When someone/a company creates a new brand identity and it is boring and blah (bland) - doesn't do anything for the brand and is pretty much worse than the brand was to begin with.
Customer 1: Did you notice the new logo for that computer store.
Customer 2: Yeah man, but it's boring. They didn't do anything to it. All they did was get themselves a new bland identity. They'll go under in a month.

Get the Bland Identity mug.A definition post on the site Urban Dictionary, that's subject is to define the name of someone and their characteristics when they are not a personality or famous in any way. Usually regarding the name of an individual known by posters or poster locally or through friendship.
Urban Identity Frauds can also be individuals posting definitions consisting of another person and their characteristics, usually without consent.
Urban Identity Frauds' definitions can be misleading to others with the same name in the post. The person may identify with the definition and apply characteristics to themselves, skewing their perception of themselves and reality.
:O That's deep.

Get the Urban Identity Fraud mug.Can't be contingent upon arbitrary and peripheral elements of your identity. Because what happens when your societally assigned identity is "nigger?" Your whole thing breaks down at that point. "Incel" is just as arbitrary. But it's always going to be somebody if we accept your definition.
Hym "Your identity can't be Professor-Father-Husband, Jordan. If that were the case, there would be no difference between you and every other Professor-Father-Husband. If it's contingent on your status, your status can be low ARBITRARILY. In the context of determinism, you are the antecedent chain of events leading to the present expressed as a locus of subjectivity. And I'm not standing of the shoulders of anyone, Douglarse. One of us is a giant and the other is a toxic sycophant with a stinky penis."
