People aren't a personality attached to a name they're who they want to be at any given time and personalities change.
This kind of forced identity is not only dangerous for at risk individuals but is plainly anti-social and anti-human-behavior.
- dec0dedab0de 13y agoThis is rather insightful. Now I'm actively considering changes in my personality based on different social interactions. I wonder if enjoyment of various activities is contingent upon the personality one puts on while engaging in them. Which raises the question, what if any parts of our personality are consistent throughout all activities.
