Magician, Sorcerer, Wizard?, What do you consider yourself? Options

Good evening,

This is perhaps a topic that has been mentioned quite regularly, but what in your opinion should a male practicing magic call himself? Why do some choose to call themselves "magician" instead of "wizard." Next, when should a male, or female for that matter, begin to call themselves by these different names? It is sad to think that an armchair magician is calling himself a great and powerful mage. I understand that these different names have to do a lot with your background, but I thought I'd get everyone's imput on the classification of these sorts of men and women alike. Shouldn't a woman who practices magic be considered a witch? Or shouldn't a male who does the same thing consider himself a magician? Let's keep things simple, right? There seem to always be complications that arise with the term. What do you consider yourself and why? What's your background? Any thoughts would be a very interesting read.

Sincerely,

Mr. Curi

Im not into titles, per se. if i had to choose one, it would be wizard because i strive to learn and understand. Sorcerers were considered black magicians because they would evok spirits to do their dirty work, thereby pretty much taking the quick and easy path to power, rather than learning that power for themselves, and learning the responsability that comes with it. I tolerate mage in a social setting, when im with my order, and wizard when i have to include a title. I dont like priest because im not an ordained priest, even though all christians are considered priests for the Lord. I do not like being called a sorcerer because i view it as a negative title, and i dont like warlock because it is derived from an old word meaning for traitor.

go with what you like, but know that other people could take these terms very wrongly..... which is why i keep my title to myself.
