Particularly when they do it in a positive (This is who we are) rather than a negative (we're not like them) manner.

I agree, but I feel like it's sad somehow that we've (NPC) lost that intensity, if that's the right word. All the groups, as far as I know, were founded to offer something that wasn't already there, but now we're as conventional and bureaucratic as the registrar's office. (Well, not really, but it's still hard to see how a group of young women who start their own group with the intention of founding a group will be comfortably absorbed by a national.)
