What i have often found from those who hate labels is they believe in someting.... and thus have been labeled something.... that the majority doesn't like.
potted meat probably doesn't like labels either.... but I bet if you were to poll cans of pineapples they are all pretty happy with theirs! especially those rings. yummy !

In sociology, the word [labeling] is used more as a metaphor, than a concrete concept. The general function of labels are widely known and recognized as a method of distinction that helps people recognize one product from another. In
social terms, labels represent a way of differentiating and identifying people that is considered by many as a form of prejudice and discrimination.
