For me, I shy away from 'humanism' because I don't trust it not to become political correctness, unwarranted should'ing and unthinking. Want to talk values great. But lets not anyone start with "as any humanist would, I think..".
Getting attached to a label is not good. This is why I don't care if people call me atheist or agnostic or apatheist or an ignostic. I don't want to start thinking, "I'm a x therefor I believe y."
