I really wish you could let me use my own words to define my self identity. I'm not defining you. Your understanding of those words are irrelevant to my identity and my perceptions. It really is ok to disagree.
I really wish you would hear that I don't understand your words and am trying to translate hypatia42-speak into something I do understand.
I do not mean to tell you what word you should use. I do mean to check my ~dictionary translation. ... This might be easier if we were speaking, say, French and Japanese, instead of "A-English" and "L-English" and therefore using the same words as different vocabulary. *musingly* Maybe there's some way I can mark that that's what I'm doing in the future...
