They also serve the objectives of providing a measure of justice directly to victims, offering them a future that may alleviate, to some extent, the suffering they have endured.

With varying specificity, they help us communicate our genders, sexualities, ethical frameworks, spiritualities, and more. Like many tools, they can make life easier to navigate.
