identity transference

A marketing method that shifts the consumer's identity from the consumer to a product to get the consumer to buy it and love it.

Identity transference is a way that marketers distort reality by getting potential car buyers to come to feel that they can become the car they want to buy. After they buy it, they feel they are one with it, and happily spend money to maintain it in the best condition (sometimes better than themselves).

Vanity Identities

Self-Love. A healthy high ego.
It gets mistaken for arrogance.

Bootleg Vanity - if you really like how you look, but you don’t take it seriously and it’s light-hearted. Then your friends know you’re bullshitting them they just do whatever, but they’re cool about it.

High-End Vanity - a healthy selfish. Putting yourself before others to do what's best for you.

Vanity - the mirror thing where you want to kiss yourself and you actually mean it.

It can fluctuate, change and/or evolve over time.

I'm a hybrid Bootleg-High-End Vanity,

Bootleg-leaning Vanity

AKA Bootleg Vanity-leaning Vanity.

Post-Metaphorical Identity

Post-Metaphorical Identity is the non-identification with any metaphorical sign, movement, characteristic, or collective as an individual. The Post-Metaphorical Identity school of thought is very similar to the Post-Racial school of thought, however the Post-Metaphorical Identity school is more strictly intellectual, less popular, and more strict in its final consideration of what is considered proper identity clauses in an educated populace.

Post-Metaphorical Identity is more literal, expansive, scientific, and agreed upon than any other identity signatures, such as white or black, as it is obvious to any apparent onlooker.

Post-Metaphorical Identity is final, deliberate, and scientific. Way to go!

reverse identity theft

The act of abusing the well-known and "automatically accepted" concept of identity theft (whereby a nameless criminal commits a crime and makes it appear that an innocent person did it) by falsely mentioning it to hopefully avert suspicion of criminal involvement --- the accused person does indeed commit one or more crimes himself, but then when questioned by authorities, the culprit claims to merely be an innocent ID-theft victim, and that somebody else must have committed the crimes in his name.

John claims that while he was golfing with his buddies, someone snuck into his car and used his laptop to send smutty e-mail messages. But I know what an "in the gutter" mindset he has, so I suspect that he's just hiding behind reverse identity theft.

identity washing

The process of allowing newly obtained information, over a period of time, to change your beliefs in such a way that are you no longer capable of seeing differently than your beliefs.

After graduating from college, it was clear to her friends that Karen had been identity washing herself; she would become enraged if you disagreed with her.

Lifestyle Identity

An Identity lifestyle is similar to a gender or sexual identity, but for one's lifestyle. Is typically something the 'common' person doesn't engage in as a lifestyle and is not considered or accepted as a culture by the masses (this does NOT include harmful or illegal hobbies, interests, etc). It becomes an identity when you decide to embrace it as a part of who you are and how you live. It can be something you decide to be as (one or more of) your identity lifestyle(s), or something you feel you were called to/born for/etc. Examples of things that could/should be considered under the identity lifestyle umbrella can be: The furry community, Witchcraft/Wicca community, Kin community, Age regression community, and so forth.

Kelly: Hey Sam, I heard from your boyfriend that you came out with your lifestyle identity last week.

Sam: Yeah, recently I discovered that my lifestyle identity is Wicca.

Kelly: I'm happy for you! I discovered my lifestyle identity last year, I've never felt so in touch with myself.
