    A person can strap on a pair of fake wings and wear a tutu, running around screaming that he, or she, is a fairy princess, but it does not indeed make that person a fairy princess.

    of course not. that is, unless as a society we construct an identity “fairy princess” that is defined as strapped on fake wings, a tutu, and proclaiming oneself to be one.
