    Yes, of course it's normal that you take issue with it. If it helps, it's not just you that is being labelled:

    Sluts, milfs, dirty old men, swingers, cougars, gold diggers, I don't think any of them are happy with being labelled thusly, especially if they don't fit what the stereotype implies. I see lots of people using these terms, though.

    So in short, yes, you are normal, and no, you're not alone.

      Hey there.

      Thanks for commenting. :)
      I'm glad you brought up those typical labels.
      My post was a bit self-centered.

      And thanks for the sentiment overall.

        I definitely didn't want to make you feel self-centred, because I don't consider that you are. You brought up an interesting point and I think the labels I gave are much more common in terms of causing offence. It was actually really good to hear about someone being offended by a label that doesn't bother a lot of people.

        I suppose my motive was to make you feel part of a bigger problem and, by implication, not alone.

          Ha. No worries. You did nothing at all to make me feel that way. I was just saying more or less I appreciate you bringing it up.
