What names have you been called?

Have you been called names? Cruel names? Endearing names? Called names in anger? Had names whispered in your ear when being made love to? It seems human beings have to categorize everyone and everything and I started thinking of all the names that have been put on me over the years and here are some of them (in no particular order or time): American (was never hyphenated with Russian or English!) ---Gay----Male White--Butch--Trade--Jewish--Jew--Loner--Hustler--Lover--Trick--Writer-- Waiter-- Pussycat--Liberal--Romantic--Journalist--Evil--Pig--Smoker--Fat-- Tramp--Liar--Conceited--Egotist--Smart--Compulsive--Extremist--List Maker-- Movie/Theatre Queen--Impulsive--Lazy--Single--Excessive--Easygoing-- Tyrannical--Sun worshipper--Young--Old--Good-looking--Handsome--Hunky-- Bear--Tourist--Native--Giver-Taker--Critic--Marine--Dishonorable--Honest-- Caring--Punctual--Night person--Alcoholic--Bleeding Heart--Cold--Disturbed-- Possessive--Stubborn--Kind--Cold--Queer--the "F" word And the list goes on--and most of them are not one time things--seems people see you the way they want to and you are different people at different times in your life. What are YOUR names, labels, tags? Not how you name yourself but others have named you. Why do you think we have to label each other? How do you feel about people being defined with various names?
