It's a part of it, and they can be.

You are who you are, whether you publicly label yourself as it or not. Others recognizing how I feel, and what I want, has nothing to do with whether it is legitimate or not.

Labeling myself helps me understand myself better and finding others like me.

People coming together for a shared cause/feeling/purpose is a community. That's like saying knitting isn't a community.
