    Oh dear, now moderate preference for blacks over whites. I couldn't disagree more. Racism is nonsense either way, be it classic white racism or affirmative actions in university/job recruitment. I got a bit disoriented and confused my fingers a little (my legendary coordination :p ) and the test got screwed. :p Strong automatic preference for fat people? Come on, that test is rubbish.

    If you also read the text it says you should undertake it more than once if you want a more acurate picture of yourself.

    I agree with most of mine. I think the disability stems from a fear of becoming disabled myself.
    I am surprised by the career one, as the major female influences in my life are strongly career orientated. Maybe it's more a lack of connection with Males and Family. Black/White skin is probably down to a lack of Black friends/associates. Preference toards Judaism may be down to Rally as the only person ever to cause me to feel kindly disposed to a religion.

    slight preference to thin people over fat people - I don't find obese women attractive, but a few lbs overweight is better than a few under.

    moderate automatic preference for Black American compared to White American - Thats pobably true (at least they didn't use the stupid term 'African American).

    a strong automatic preference for Straight People compared to Gay People - I don't have a problem with gays, however I don't like attention seekers, and unfortuantley most gays that I know are major attention seekers.

    Slightly attribute weapons with Black Americans over Whites

    Have no preference between Jefferson and Bush

    Gee, you think? Complete apathy? Oh well, I don't care

    Just completed the Native Amer. vs White Amer. test. Results were:

    Not surprised. I am very proud of my Nat.Amer. heritage distant tho it may be.
