GAW, I’m sorry you don’t like my cousin 🙂

I don’t mind labels, provided you aren’t labeling people to be derisive. I also label myself female, Jewish, a Yankee fan, an engineer…the first two I had no choice in but the last two I do. I like perspective on people and how they label themselves generally gives a decent picture.

I am Modern Orthodox. I don’t mind being labeled that way. My sister labels herself as “yeshivish oriented” – she isn’t quite yeshivish but she associates fairly closely with them.
