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 Identer mug.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 Identity mug.Hym "Is it because people thought someone else was Hym or that I was someone else? My identity isn't the issue here. You don't dictate the extent to which I am or am not Hym. My identity doesn't alter that fact that you are trying to steal my time and my labour. And you don't get to tell me that because I'm using a pseudonym it somehow de-legitimizes the contributions I've made. My identity isn't the problem here. My behavior isn't the problem here. And if you don't stop YOUR behavior and reveal YOUR identity, I AM GOING TO MURDER SOMEONE'S CHILD. I DON'T CARE IF YOU DON'T GET IN TROUBLE BECAUSE I KNOW THAT DOING IT WILL GET AT LEAST ON OF YOU TO KILL YOURSELVES AND/OR TURN ON THE REST AND THAT WILL BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME.
