Labels

There are so many labels. Labels are on everything. Even on humans. Some labels people give themselves: gay, straight, liberal, conservative, hippie, black, white, and many more.
Why do we label ourselves? Is it because we want people to know who we are? Why do I need to know that you are a neat freak or gay. Is that helping me or hurting me?
