So, we take this online personality quiz thingy, taken by and blogged about by Red7Eric over at Secrets of the Red Seven. He turns out to be a benevolent creator, which sounds like it’s probably not so bad for a playwright. Myself, I’m a benevolent realist, whereas Dawn is a respectful architect. I’m not really sure what those are.
Mostly, Dawn and I are about opposite in everything. She’s marginally more masculine than I am, and I’m way more feminine than she is. I really am a pretty girl after all.
| Attribute | –Edward– | –Dawn– |
| Confidence | 6 | 94 |
| Openness | 24 | 2 |
| Extroversion | 88 | 10 |
| Empathy | 74 | 20 |
| Trust in others | 96 | 82 |
| Agency | 8 | 78 |
| Masculinity | 36 | 56 |
| Femininity | 74 | 2 |
| Spontaneity | 62 | 4 |
| Attention to style | 34 | 64 |
| Authoritarianism | 26 | 58 |
| Imaginative <---> Earthy | 48 | 92 |
| Functional <---> Aesthetic | 16 | 76 |
The first eleven are your basic zero to one-hundred percent type deals. The last two are scales from one to the other. As in I’m halfway between imaginative and earthy, while Dawn’s barely imaginative and mostly earthy. I’m apparently very functional. That’d be somewhat funny, given my relative inability to function, but on a scale of functional to aesthetic, I’m more functional than. Again, apparently.
Good fun anyway.
I searched for a minute for this test, but the originating blog has moved, and I quickly tired of it. Still, it looks like an interesting test. Reading your answers, I’d guess that my sensibilities are closer to Ed’s than Dawn’s, although I’d skew much more toward the imaginative side than the earthy than either one. It’s too bad they didn’t have a comparison for practical/impractical. I’d be off the chart for the former.
Incidentally, it occurred to me that I could jump from blog to blog to blog forever if I chose. I wonder if some folks are addicted to them.
