One of the best parts of college for me was no longer just being seen as someone's daughter. My parents were both very well known in our small town and while I love them dearly, it was dehumanizing to me to continually hear "oh, are you Dad33's daughter" and "you must be Mom33's girl. " Yes, I am, but I'm ME!! Not just their appendage. If someone referred to me as "33girl the ASA" that was different - I CHOSE that. If the author of this article thinks she can live her life without any identifiers and that will make her life better- doubtful.
