Everyone's doing polls, and I've aroused the wrath of the sign I'm most in opposition to, so let's hear what everyone has to say.

What sign are you most biased against? Feel free to tell stories why you feel the way you do about that sign.

cancers - i'll say . why ? - may be because they are of the same stock as me and i understand them better . i'll agree that i have been biased sometime even when they were wrong . this was in a positive way .

in a negative i am always biased against aquas and libras . i am being 200% honest today(LOL)

Please notice in the other polls the blatant presence of bias when people talk in any manner about other signs.

You can't arouse the wrath of a sign.. Sign's don't DO wrath.. they are entities not people.

Well, that way I didn't have to single you out as you felt I did with my first ever comment concerning what you had said. Besides, people know what I mean. Here, in this forum, we are all known by our signs. I didn't mention you by name in the original comment made about you, yet you took offense to it, so there must be a link between the sign and the person.

I'm a Libra

I've had negative experiences with both Capricorns and Cancers...

I don't think one could say I am truly biased against them since I have both Cancer and Capricorn friends and for some reason I always end up dating one of the two signs LOL (which never workout btw) but I'd never rule out anyone b/c of their sign...I think that's foolish.

In my experience the Capricorns were emotionally cold, while the Cancers were a bit whiney as well as big time momma's boys. Their fragile ego's could break quite easily...

...always makes me wonder why Cancers and Capricorns together make such a great combo???

Very interesting!

Yes, I always fall hard for Cancers myself as a Capricorn. Maybe it's that whole notion of trying to complete yourself with what you lack. Caps lact the emotional bond Cancers create with people. Cancers might gain the ability to create boundaries from a Capricorn counterpart.

I think it's interesting the Cardinal signs are attracted to one another. You're the Cardinal Air, and you're attracted to the Cardinal Earth, and Cardinal Water signs. Interesting stuff.

I don't think an Aries would be a good lawyer (too imaginative without regard for reality), or a great judge of Capricorns as they are about as opposite from a Capricorn as you can be. The only thing Aries and Capricorn have in common is the fact that they are Cardinal signs

quote:

I want to make this as clear as possible to you. In your original comment 'Aries' was not mentioned as a sign. 'Aries' took on a person's characteristics ie. judging. Only a person can be judgemental not a sign. You've never actually mentioned a sign as a sign. You have this strange idea that signs are people and people are signs. Again Aries the sign is different to Capricorn the sign. But that makes no difference to your comment. because Aries the sign can never judge Capricorn the sign. Because like I said signs are entities. An aries person on the other hand can make judgements on a Capricorn person.. so can a capricorn person make judgements on an Aries person in fact you did make a judgement on all Aries people in saying you don't think they'd make good lawyers - that goes back to the double standard thing I explained to you . You can not objectively with a clear head say that any one Aries person should not pass judgement on any one Capricorn person because in your view all Aries ppl and Capricorn ppl in the world are as opposed as they can be. On a different thread I gave you teh definitions of "fact" and "opinion". Fact is something you can prove. Can you prove to me that every Aries person in teh world is the complete opposite of every Capricorn person in the world.. because if you can, if you have 60000000 people's astrological fact sheets, I'd be quiet impressed.

Your quote in itself is two sentences, no more no less. It's nothing.. and when anyone looks at that they may as well say I'm blowing things out of proportion. But my problem isn't with the two sentence quote my problem is with what lies beneath the quote - your convictions on this matter.

I'm really done this time though. I'm repeating myself and nothings getting through. It's really pointless..like I said before it really isn't my place to educate you. I hope life experiences with a diversity of people..will do that

What sign am I most biased against?

Cancers - because they touch off something in me, they are mostly untrustworthy, and we don't have the same values, they are more concerned with home, family etc. No connection at all there. Also don't have much to say for themselves, you have to really work to prise 2 words out of both males and females, which gets a bit boring after a while! Also I find Cancerian women have usually competed for the attentions of the same guy as me in the past - and they very deliberately turn on the "mothering" thing that guys love, and which seems to work, guys fall for it every time. AAAARRGGGHHHH! I hate them!

Aquas - possibly because I and my husband are at loggerheads - although I do have a couple of OK Aqua acquaintances. They are opinionated and stick-in-the-mud traditional. They can be quite entertaining but they never take anything they do seriously enough. The females are a bit better than the males in this respect.

Sags - Controlling, boastful, arrogant, convinced they're right.

Might sound a bit negative but I have come up against the same problems with those signs time and time again.

I suppose I am just talking about the "traits" of the sign and not the person (hopefully), but in the past the biggest problems Ive had have been with Aries women - I worked with three of them over the years and two of them made my life hell, especially one who I nearly had a nervous breakdown over, until I told her to stick her job, but.............before all you Aries out there jump on me,one of the nicest people I ever knew was an Aries woman, but with cancer rising, so she seemed softer somehow. My Aries Dad who I love dearly always rubbed me up the wrong way - jumped in too quickly andcould be cruel, but then again I admired his leadership thing. I have Aries rising, so maybe this is something in me that I need to work on??? Some Geminis Ive met have seemed flippant and not very reliable, but great craic so maybe we have to try and focus on the good - love to all xxx

What is up with these discussions? I thought it was fun before, but now they're just getting mean.
I admit, I thought Virgos bit, but then, I remember a special someone here that made me change my mind about them.

Er...did I come over a little aggressive? Part of it is me feeling like that right now - part of it is having a Cancer MIL who can't compete in any other way but "mothering".

BUT, don't take it too personally. The question was asked, I gave an answer based on my personal experience. I just don't get on with them!!!
Lots of people don't like Aries, I can accept that, we are difficult!

I'm not going to edit the message or be hypocritical, though, because I believe in being accountable for what I post. That view happens to be a pretty strong one of mine, so you can crucify me for it if you like!!!

ariestiger, I admire your integrity, and being accountable for every post.
Aries is a sign I particularily relate to, for whatever reason...
The women I always seem to adore and share views with, the men always seem to end up in my bed.
*or sometimes I just want them there*

I can't say I have a least/best fave though.
I like and don't like aspects of each.. including signs which are prominent in my own chart.

Aries woman are cool, they speak out what usually everyone thinks, and some people snort at it, but they do what they want, and I admire them for that, however I am most biased with Aries. Its a sign I hate/love. Well not exactly hate, I know this aries guy with cappy moon and libra ascendant who I had the hugest crush on, but it didn't work out, then this other aries, and another aries, actually I am not that biased with aries. Its just that I am always attracted to the male members of Aries, there is this one aries guy, he loves reading books, and he is so much fun and interesting to talk to! He is cool, arrogant in this cute way, and VERY FUNNY! In my experience, the Aries I know, are quite active (mentally or physically, mostly mentally (the ones I know I meant)), and sociable and likeable, if you make a mistake, they will go along and chuckle or grin mischeviously, not scream at you, they will watch cartoons with you, and have some fascination with dracula or star wars or harry potter or LOTR (the aries I know do.. uhh so not speaking for everyone). and this aries woman, she really helps me raise my confidence and makes me feel much much better about myself (not lying here!). I guess I am biased most against to none of the signs. I hate them all equally!. Just Joking.

I have met wonderful people of each and every sign, and equally nasty ones. There are just too many variables.

I think some people are worrying too much and getting offended about silly simple questions.

I'm sure it makes some people worried about asking anything.

I have least got along with Aries men - I just dont like them! And Scorpio women too... Both have too-big egos IMO, which really gets on my nerves...

I also dont like capricorns - the ones I know are too narrow-minded and judgemental for my liking...

Libras get on my t!ts too... shallow, self-centred, and too 'me-me-me'

of course, I'm only talking of people I know...

Acoustic God, btw, I wasn't getting ****** at you in that other thread, I seriously do think you were joking so I'm not cross or bearing a grudge


Interesting how everyone is mainly naming the signs they're square to.... I'm a Virgo and I adore Geminis!!!! Most of my best friends are Gems I have met more of them than any other sign... I am drawn to them, get on with them well and frankly, couldn't live without them because they are my best friends!!! Mwa!
