You are definitely NOT the only one contesting the meaning of “system”, a follow a ton of plural blogs (that I won’t name) that do the same thing, lol. Everyone one person has a different definition for it, it seems.

Yeah, that is the problem there is no consensus. If there were an agreement, I would simply go along with it. Obviously I don’t want to harm DID systems who feel the term is being appropriated. But I also don’t want to harm other multiples who feel like they are being forced to stop using a word they have used for many years, and feel they have as much a right to use.

My compromise is that I personally only use the term system to refer to those with DID. I can’t change the language that my followers and asks use, aside from by pointing out that the term is disputed.
