“The origins of identity in terms of when it manifested in a person's life, or what place that identity, or experiences, traditions, and practices, holds in a person's life is not relevant to any sense of authenticity. What matters is that a behavior or practice or trait represents the vision a person has for themself and their future. And this backstory, the inner workings of how one comes to know oneself, does not need to be revealed for the sake of legibility. We don't need to know what's behind the closet or the barn door.”
