    Identity. Most overrated fad thing ever. People with no personality trying to find meaning in completely irrelevant information. Oh, you’re a gay martian? That’s cool I guess, but can you juggle?!?

    EDIT: Oh wow. What a horrible cunt of a person in the interview. She didn’t deserve her family.

      Try living for fifty years without the natural ability others enjoy to maintain an identity and then tell me its overrated.

        This magical ability to “maintain an identity” you speak of, is not a real thing that exist. Learning that you don’t have to define yourself by circumstantial irrelevant bullshit you’ve got no control over like age, sex, family or skin colour will only lead to you being yourself.

          Actually doctor, identity is a real thing that people depend on to exist as social creatures in a social universe. It can be disrupted by personality disorders, brain injuries, etc. It’s like you are saying, “Proprioception isn’t a real thing, people just know where their limbs are!” Be grateful you don’t even know what the fuck I am talking about, and learn some humility.
