I thought it would be interesting to know what everyone defines themselves as, around here.

Please take the poll!

:)
Thanks for starting this thread.

I've been thinking of starting something like this for quite a while. We see a lot of labels being used around here (and elsewhere). The only validity IMHO to any label, is what one gives themselves, hence a post like this is quite meaningless.

I would add to the question another part, which is how you would like to see your kids grow up?

But to answer your opening question, I define myself as someone who strives to be a Lubavitcher.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Nope. Go ahead and take the poll.
I would love to, but my selection is not currently one of the options.

Not sure why anyone would have a problem posting their self-identification publicly in a post.

Can you add "a Pashuter Yid" as an option? or Shomer Torah Mitzvos

BTW you are also missing Sufis, Hindus, etc and lehavdil
Galicianer, Oberlander...
since you didn't have Shwarmabob as an option I had to pick Tuna Beygel as the next best derech

What's "Non Yeshivish Litvish"? non-yeshivish but learns Shas and Poskim?

Need Yeshivish baalabos.  Is yeshivish, but hangs out on ddf instead of being in kollel.
