WEIRD

The right to be weird    
is the right to be free.

Sterotypes, i.e. sloppy
generalizations about
groups of people can
not be oppressive
unless there is an
additional assumption
that *all* individuals          A confusion of the map
are or should obey              and the territory?
the generalization.

If there's an understanding
that individuals are free
to be individual, if the
exceptions to the rule are
valued rather than feared,
then all the teeth of false
generalizations are pulled.

The right to be weird includes
all other rights.                                     ((sounds good.
                                                        really, though?))
