Hym "Your 'Identity' is literally you acting out a role. And now you've created this false dichotomy between doing the gender role and not having an identity. Additionally, people who are higher in trait openness are going to be more fluid in their personality. So you're contradicting the personality literature. That isn't 'not having an identity" it's 'being high in trait openness.' So, that's ridiculous. Are women reliably higher in trait openness? They're reliably more liberal. And liberalism is associated with being higher in trait openness (if I'm remembering correctly). So.... Yeah, that tracks. They're doing it right, I guess. Yeah, no, you lost me at no tattoos. I'm just not going to do that."

Get the Identitymug. 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 Identitymug. 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 Fraudmug. 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."

Get the Identitymug. Treating someone in certain ways to give them an identity that is better or worse than the one they have.
An example of identity-giving is when one day, someone treats someone else as if they were a genius, then on another day that person treats the person in ways that say that person is fool.

Telling a person who or what they are or also treating them in certain ways to improve or deteriorate their identity and get them to do or not do something.
Telling a person who or what they are or also treating them in certain ways to improve or deteriorate their identity and get them to do or not do something.
Some religions tell their followers they are "sinners"; other religions tell their followers they are "the chosen." Compliments such as "you are the best," or insults such as "you are a fucking idiot" are also examples of "identity giving".

Get the Identity Givingmug. A term that protects cultural assimilators when people speak out against them. Supposedly, defined as the race you feel the most connected to. A person who adopts a racial identity might begin to: speak stereotypically, dress in outdated/ stereotypical clothing, change their physical appearance artificially, or state that they want to be reborn into their racial identity. Typically, but not as the exception, adopters of a racial identity are White American teenagers. Certain laws have been put into place to make it harder to protect your own culture from them.

1: Wassup my Bruther?
2: Why are you talking like that?
1: Cus I'm Black. I just got my results back on 23 and me, and it turns out I'm 30% Northeastern African, so I wanted to embrace my Black culture.
2: Not all Africans are Black, and there are other ways to embrace your heritage.
1: Shut up! You don't understand. Being Black is my racial identity. I'm Black and I've always been Black, Now I just have proof!
