Identity is an incredibly complex issue and therefore, if one is trying to start an argument with someone, a damn good place to start. One’s self image can be shaped by so many factors. Sexuality, gender, nationality, moral beliefs, religious inclinations and skin colour, amongst many other things, can all contribute to identity. An in-depth discussion about personal identity can equate to waving around a tub of pure nitro-glycerine in a fireworks factory. That is to say, expect a reaction. Understandably, people get passionate about how they view themselves as an individual, and as part of a group. Identity is an inseparable part of society, the incomprehensibly multifarious arena in which life must take place. Put simply, identity is bloody important.
