You have apparently never had anyone steal your identity to use in a public forum, or had anyone ask you "aren't you that asshole who...."
In case you haven't been following past dramas, the people on this site are far more accepting of people posting imperfect pictures of themselves than most other places i've seen. I don't necessarily approve, but sometimes pictures get more abuse just by being too close to the socially accepted beauty standard.
It's my opinion that people who look for acceptance by claiming to be someone else should not be accepted. It doesn't matter if they're pretending to be martha stewart, or pretending to be some hot gothababe. If kids are encouraged to do this stuff by our tolerance, they will keep doing it and they will never learn to be themselves and make real friends. If I have to be an elitist bastard to teach kids how to behave properly, then I'm going to do it.

Hey! I AM a carrer politician! And a lawyer, which gets me into 2 of the 3 most hated groups in America. Let's not generalise that way, shall we? I am as fed up of people saying I am inmoral because I am a lawyer as I am of people saying I deserve public scorn because ai am a politician as I am of pople saying I am an idiot because I am catholic, which is quite a lot. There are some of us trying to change some things from inside, you know.
Saint Arthegarn Marthyr, I will become at this rate
