A family that cares more about labels/brands than it does their income, financial success, and health and happiness of their family.

LGBTQ+ (usually) labels that seem to contradict each other, used simultaneously.
A few examples: straight gay, lesboy, turigirl, afab trans woman, etc.
These identities don't have to make sense to you, as labels are meant to reflect one's own perception of themselves. Plus, language and culture are constantly evolving.
Remember: diminishing other queer people for having atypical experiences is ultimately unhelpful in our acceptance.
Sometimes, these labels are used to better describe someone's experiences with gender and sexuality — for example, an intersex AFAB woman may still identify as transgender because they feel it best describes them.

high functioning and low functioning are both common medical term which are actually very harmful to use.
they're often used to measure how easy disabled people are to interact with and not actually how their disorder affects them.
when someone is labelled as high functioning, people assume they have no struggles whatsoever, so they don't look out for them. and then they might have a meltdown or burnout because they've had to push through those feelings all of the time.
and when someone is labelled as low functioning, people assume they're stupid or something along those lines, so they baby low functioning people. even when they're full-grown adults!
(when i use the term "disabled" i mean anyone who is affected by a learning disability or anything similar, if my usage of this term comes off as offensive, just know that i apologise, but i am saying all of this as a disabled person, so ofc i wouldn't use that term to purposefully harm anyone!)

Person 1: so you have high functioning autism?
Person 2: on the outside that may be true for you, but on the inside life is very difficult for me, so i'd prefer if you didn't force functioning labels on me and just do your best to support me instead.
P1: oh crap, sorry man, thanks for explaining

Someone who comes to a party completely unknown, and turns up to the maximum level. He turns everyone else up higher then they were before, brings free shit like weed, beer, drugs, all that nice stuff, and then gives it all away. Thing is? They leave, unknown, with just a name left behind.
For example. Last year, on a Florida Beach. Some tall dude with the shaggiest hair came to my college beach party. Was getting boring as jagger man. This dude shows up, 2 OUNCES of the LOUDESTTTT shit ever man! Just gave it away! Then he got up on the cliff and started head banging, pouring a 40 ounce on his hair. Total fucking epic. Dude left though, when the hottest girl in the party started grinding. Left his name in her back pocket. "Charlie Marley" Dudes a legend here in the Carolina beaches man. At least to everyone around me! He's like an urban legend of all labelers!

Non-labeled is when a guy and girl can't date so they make a deal of being with each other which includes everything that couples do but just without a label.
I am non-labeled with my ex girlfriend because we couldn't date anymore but we still are dating just without a label

Non-labeled is when you like someone but dont want to have an official name. There are couples who like each other but don't like to have an official name such as Girlfriend,Boyfriend,Together and a couple.
Andrea:I told you, I dont like to be labeled. I want to feel free to be with anyone I want.
Arturo:Dont you want to be with me?
Andrea:Of course I do, but I dont want to feel like a claimed item of be defined as your girlfriend.
Arturo:What are you saying?
Andrea:I want to be Non-labeled, you should be able to do what makes you happy.
