Japanese Blood Type Personality Test

By Alex in Everything Else on Sep 15, 2007 at 12:18 am

Turns out a lot of Japanese people still believe that your blood type can tell a lot about your character!

The whole thing started in 1927, when Takeji Furukawa, a professor at Tokyo Women’s Teacher’s School published a paper purportedly showing particular characteristics of people with specific blood type. The government seized the idea and tried to use it to (what else?) breed soldiers.

Why is earnest a “worst trait”?

Korea too, I hear from a friend. When they meet one another, it’s often “What’s your name? What’s your blood type?”

Something about compatability.

The Japanese subsidiary of the global conglomerate I work for listed each employee’s blood type along with their phone number in their employee phone directory, back in the days of paper employee phone directories.

Yeah, it’s still very common. I once had a bit of a chat with a Japanese girl and she said I seemed like a Type A and my response then was “ehhh.. thanks I guess” but after a bit a googling well, I appreciate the thought but I’m a type O

This is terribly wrong. If anything I’m the least cheerful person I know.

Ha, I’m type O,…but…I’m type O positive…not negative. So,..is there a difference in the personality of Type O positive and negative???

I used to believe this a lot…. But after evaluating many personalities and blood types, I don’t think blood types tell all that much as people think. But I do believe that blood type sets a fundamental base for one’s way of thinking… but how you look at the person cannot all depend on blood type. I know an A-blood girl who’s a total b!tch but another A-blood girl who is funny and nice as hell.
By the way I’m an O blood.

I’m type A+ and this soooo describes me! I think I’m going to follow the Blood Type Diet and see how I do. I don’t think it will hurt any.

Type AB fits me personality-wise, but I’m type A-. This just furthers my skepticism about these personality-type things.
