"Yer a cute girl."
"I'll let our mechanic take a look at this."
"You still have a penis? Then you're not really a woman."
Yes, in order to communicate as a human being, we need to label things to give other people a better understanding on what it is we are talking about. If it weren't for labels, we wouldn't find the right foods in the grocery store. We have to have labels to take the correct drugs, in the correct combination and at the correct time. Harsh chemicals need labels to keep us from thinking we can use them in our mix drinks. Labels not only help make our lives easier, but safer.
