<span>A self-imposed identity is just as imposed as an other-imposed identity. While some of us may chafe at other-imposed vs self-imposed, I think there's another type of person, those who resist any stable identity, whether other- or self-imposed. And resistance
 is the wrong way to frame it. It's more like a tendency to swirl around in an attractor versus a tendency to hop from one basin to another.</span><br>
