I'm fascinated...

By this article.  Are we all really bad at judging ourselves?  Do we all live in a world of tragic self-delusion?  Or, is their quiz just incredibly skewed and un-scientific?

That is interesting. Personally, I suspect that the greatest error may be in assuming that people select for qualities (even granting that they all have the same associations)which they embody, rather than those which they admire. It seems to me that a great many people are attracted to qualities which they themselves do not possess.

It's not a good scientific test...too many generalities and too reliant on the person's own perception...it'd be better if people who knew each other choose the shapes for each other,a dn colors, and then we'd see how we really come across.
