In considering identity, it is interesting to think how we as people do not necessarily create the labels that we follow and how following a label results in a complex construction of how we present ourselves within that identifying box. Specifically, identification can be, as you said, fragile, but it can also lead us to feel deeper consequences than what we may give it credit for when in situations where stereotypes are present.
