confidentially, she never called me baby doll
so I've spent the last three and a half hours reading about fun things like homophobia, racism, and antifeminism :D thanks, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
metaquotes!
but the point of this post is to pimp out Harvard's Project Implicit, which is something that I find endlessly fascinating. basically, it tests your unconscious associations between various topics (i.e. church/state + bad/good) and tells you what those associations are. it's a good way to make sure you're not being hypocritical, although I have to caution you against getting defensive if you get a result that doesn't match what you thought of yourself. there are two options: Demonstration, which is just various tests that you can take without it contributing to their data; and Research, which requires you to be either 18+ or have a parental email (aka use a different email than the one you registered with), which obviously does add to their tests.
personally, I think all this is fascinating, and this is as much a mental note to myself as it is me trying to get other people involved in it (...or something). if anyone does take it, I'd be sort of interested to hear some of your results (if you're comfortable sharing); thus far, I've learned that I have a slight preference for Certainty over Mystery and a moderate preference for Church over State (which is somewhat surprising, but in many ways not at all)—I don't know if these tests are available in the Demonstration section, as I'm participating in the Research part, but I'm sharing anyway because I'm cool like that :D
