ID: Drawing of a duck billed platypus underwater, they’re wearing a rainbow coloured t shirt and a pink bum-bag, and saying: “Ally is not something you can self-identify as, it’s a title that you earn. Let your actions speak for themselves!”

No one is in charge of how someone identifies except themselves.
So you’re saying that OP could choose to identify as your significant other, and it would be entirely OP’s decision with none of your input?
Taking that idea and making it about how people can self-identify as allies regardless of their actions is incredibly distasteful.
