And, I definitely fit the liberal profile, per a new study in Political Psychology .
Liberals supposedly have more creative looking and independent-minded office space. At home, in the living room, I fit all of these:
• More CDs (I’m nearing 800)
• A greater variety of CDs (mainly classical, but through blues and classic rock to traditional Navajo chants, folk music of Uzbekistan and chord-singing Mongolian monks)
• Greater variety of books (non-fiction, at least, despite tightly rotating many of my books in and out to Half Price Books; if it’s nonfiction, I’m likely to give it a look)
• More color (my best National Parks and other nature photography in 8x10s — walls are rented apartment standard beige, though)
• More clutter (no comment).
The one thing missing (maybe there’s not a difference) along the same lines, would be the number and variety of spices, condiments, etc. In other words, does the conformity/change axis translate to food preferences?
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
