I have more than just one ID, I have more than just a sexual or gender ID.
What IDs make you feel a sense of connection with others? Give you a sense of self?

Mine, and in no particular order:

Feminist -third wave

Femme/Dolly Dyke -an internal identity. I don't feel I have much in common with other femmes just on the basis of having the same gender as them

Queer-dyke -in North America. I still call myself a lesbian in the UK

Sub (fiesty)

Daughter

Socialist

Southwest coast BC'er -because of the dirt. I feel connect to this dirt, these trees, these mountains. NOT canadian. I am not a patriot. I don't feel I have much in common with someone just because they come from Edmonton in the next province over

Cousin-friend - my friends that I love like family I feel a family like responsibility too and they are part of my identity

Ex-sexworker/sex advocate -big part of who I am, I feel pride about this like people do about being gay and have shame shoved at them for being gay. So I'm out and proud about it.

Writer

Smart arse.
