Blood Types & Personality

This is an interesting read via Huffpost. "Like astrology, the scientific community often dismisses blood type as an indicator of personality, but that doesn’t stop its popularity in Japanese women’s magazines, where blood type horoscopes are published. In Japanese video games, blood type is commonly a dimension in character creation. In fact, some Japanese might even be shocked if a foreigner didn’t know her blood type."


There are four major bloodtypes: O, A, B, and AB. I am B which translates as: independent spirits with strong personalities. Me???


I am B+ (9% of the population) and personality-wise-"You're a rugged individualist, who's straight forward and like to do things your own way. Creative and flexible, you adapt easily to any situation. But your insistence on being independent can sometimes go too far and become a weakness." Right on! As my dad used to say, "You'd cut off your nose to spite your face." It's taken me years to realize what-the-heck he was talking about and I still can't stop. I attribute it to BOTH Portuguese & Irish genetics. I've never stood a fighting chance combined with being a first-born.


Best traits: Creative and passionate. Animal-loving. Optimistic and flexible, Strong

Negative qualities: Wild, Unsociable, Critical, Indecisive, Unpredictable and Unforgiving, Forgetful, irresponsible, individualistic.


"You Have A Type B+ Personality. You're a pro at going with the flow, You love to kick back and take in everything life has to offer. A total joy to be around, people crave your stability. While you're totally laid back, you can have bouts of hyperactivity. Get into a project you love, and you won't stop until it's done. You're passionate - just selective about your passions (Personality test)
