Why is it important I have a label?
Good question. We have enough division in our country.
The KISS method works well.
I think if you own a RV, you are a RVer. :)
Exactly......
Why the different categories/labels.
Can't we ALL just get along :B
Seriously.
Labels cause division.
Division causes strife
Strife causes conflict
Conflict causes harm
Harm is devastating
Pull the RV out ...whatever you use and go camping.
I'm an RVr. Plan and simple.
Just like I am an AMERICAN....no hyphenated label needed just AMERICAN
The sad Fact Old Biscuit (a label) is that we do not all get along period. And we are never going to that is just a fact of life on earth.
I would also respectfully point out that AMERICAN is a label, as is almost any other identifier. We give ourselves labels and others put labels on us. There is no intrinsic harm or anything wrong with labels. The harm comes from the motivation for the label from who it comes and for who it is intended and whether that label is pejorative in some way.
And I disagree that all RV'ers are the same, My guess is that you have virtually nothing in common with the old lady and her 24 cats living in her broken down "RV" in a trailer park in Yuma. So just having an RV does not make one an RV'er.
Why do you constantly feel the need to psychoanalyze the members of this forum? A better use of your time would be waxing your RV or whatever label you have given it. Are you a retired head shrink?
Good grief...
