Thank you Ankh for pointing that out. You can see my perception here isn't necessarily in tune with the perceptions of those expressing angst.
It is probably a larger topic for the forum, spreading beyond the wanderer concept, of how asking questions can be seen to be a expression of doubt. There is another side to the same coin though, where as someone who may want to delve into the deeper meaning of what it means to be a wanderer may not feel comfortable doing so, knowing that it may be perceived as disharmony. In either case, someone feels they cannot share their thoughts. In different atmospheres, it may be a confession to say one is a wanderer, or a confession to say one has questions about identifying as a wanderer.
I do not view questioning as ostracizing though I understand that some might. This is a consistent theme here.
