Introducing Myself

 

by Richard Squirt

OK, less about the way I see the world and more about me. I took the Dirty Dozen test and the results were these: insignificant levels of narcissism and psychopathy and high levels (14/16) of Machiavellianism.

 The Psychopathic Personality Inventory is a better test. Have you ever taken that one?

There was an online version, but it seems to have been removed. There's probably another online version somewhere.

I found the Dirty Dozen test you mentioned and decided to take it: http://personality-testing.info/tests/DD.php

While I do believe my results are accurate, I don't think it's a very good test because it only measures a small portion of each of the three factors.

Indeed. I believe that the Dirty Dozen is administered in the clinical setting mostly as a way to gauge where to go for further testing and therapy or whatever. I'd like to take basically all of the tests on that site as I find personality tests to be infinitely interesting and entertaining. Especially the MACH-IV test, as it tests for Machiavellianism and that's what the Dirty Dozen indicated that I lean toward.

Introducing Myself

OK, I will try to keep my biography brief. fingers crossed

I was a quiet child. In the car, when my parents would drive me places, I would often demand that they did not talk to me, so that I could just be my own company in my head. Only in the car though. Maybe because you are essentially trapped in the car and you can't just walk into another room? I used to read a lot, loved playing sports (I played soccer, football, baseball, hockey, and basketball) and being outside, loved using my imagination in terms of drawing and writing and "playing pretend" as we called it. I was into arts and crafts, video games... basically I didn't discriminate between "masculine" and "feminine" games or toys. I remember that I used to on occasion experiment (in that weird pre-sexual childish way) with my mother's clothes, and one time my grandmother caught me in her dresser and yelled at me pretty harshly.

I used to torture animals--frogs, specifically. When I was five or six, I nailed one to a cross. It was a confusing and morbid tribute to Jesus. I continued killing frogs for fun probably until I was ten or so. All of this frog killing was done with friends. We would catch them and throw them as high as we could so that they would land with a satisfying splash in the pond. There was a turtle in the pond that we would feed frogs to. One time we caught a turtle with a fishing pole and a frog as bait and I felt awful when we had to cut the line and the turtle went back into the pond, hook in mouth.

I grew up in the Catholic Church. I remember that at the age of ten or eleven, I developed a very serious and very crippling fear of Satan. I couldn't bear to be alone in the dark and I reverted to the childishness of sleeping with a nightlight or with the door open. I would pray fervently before sleeping, asking God to not let Satan possess me or any of my family members. I thought I was possessed for a brief period and I would try to roll my eyes up into my head and would think about murder.

I think that's all the weird childhood stuff.

I love my parents, and I appreciate everything that they have ever done for me. They support me tremendously. I don't see eye to eye with them on a lot of things (essentially they are old fashioned and I'm hip and young) but I know that they have good hearts and I respect that. 

My first girlfriend was my high school sweetheart. Those times in high school were incredible (despite the nearly nonexistent sexlife), but as we left high school and moved onto college we grew apart, broke up (but still hooked up and hung out) and basically for the next few years did everything we could to make the other hate us. I had another girlfriend when I was 19 who was massively depressed and that was just a horrible sad situation all around. I learned depression from her. My current girlfriend is incredible, wonderfully supportive of me, beautiful, amazing in bed, funny as hell, and sweet a person as you'll ever meet. To put it as eloquently as possible, I'mma wife dat ho. 

Today, I am still a quiet guy until you get to know me. I still love to read, I love playing sports, I love the outdoors, and I still have slight gender identity issues. I'm essentially a straight male, but crossdressing is fun and really I can get down with anybody regardless of their genitals. I'm agnostic with elementary-level Buddhist leanings. I love this planet; it's a fucking miracle. The Universe is a fucking miracle. 

I don't torture animals. I'm not particularly upset when things die, as I know that they will go back into the Earth and be "reborn" in a sense. 

Shit. I wanted to keep that short. Thanks again for reading all that if you read it. If anyone has specific questions, I'm an open book guys.

I read Ms. Thomas's book and I thought it was pretty great, so I decided to come check out the forum.

I read it entirely. Interesting enough. Are identity issues a reason why you chose that particular avatar?

One other question (not directly related to you, but to who ever read that post) that came to my mind is, do you ever feel disgust when you see dead animals/persons or agonising animals/persons ?

Yup I do make some grammar/spelling mistakes, English is not my first language. At least if people can understand what I say, I'm satisfied!

While I do enjoy toying with my identity (I've gone to parties where there were mostly strangers under a fake name with fake stories and such) and I don't wear my heart/personality on my sleeve (if you saw me, you'd probably just think "douche"), I wouldn't consider my relationship with my identity an "issue". I do love the anonymity that comes with Halloween costumes though haha. I don't know, maybe I do have identity issues? That might be worth investigating.

As for animal/human harm/death, I've definitely developed an aversion to it. As a boy I used to go to rotten.com where I would see mutilated corpses and all that stuff, and I think that may have contributed to me desensitization to gore and death. But in the past few years I've become completely sensitized to it, where even particular violent film scenes will make me squirm.
