How do you rate on the 8 Values Political Test?

To be honest I despise that Masculine Feminine assessment. Because I'm kind and loyal, affectionate and so on I'm more womanly and because I'm argumentative and sweary I'm more masculine? What kind of shit is that? It verges on 'natural sense of rhythm' territory. The more I think about it the more furious it makes me.

I was "casually male", I think. :D
 
Not getting any less angry. Casting around for something calming I found this:

There are few higher Jewish compliments to pay someone than to call them a mensch, though, of course, a true mensch would be too modest to want to be complimented.

A mensch is a person who can be relied on to act with honour and integrity. But the Yiddish term means more than that: it also suggests someone who is kind and considerate.

Rabbi Neil Kurshan, author of the book Raising Your Child to be a Mensch, characterises it as "responsibility fused with compassion, a sense that one's own personal needs and desires are limited by the needs and desires of other people. A mensch acts with self-restraint and humility, always sensitive to the feelings and thoughts of others".

A mensch is driven by an innate decency, motivated perhaps by a sense of values to live up to but not out of regard for recognition. They will act as a mensch at times when it may be hard to be one. In Ethics of the Fathers, Rabbi Hillel said: "In a place where there are no men, strive to be a man. For man, read mensch."

It sounds like a male term, but it comes from the German word for "human being"

Fuck, I'll take that over those mealy mouthed questions about masculine and feminine. Still livid.

Don't think it's changed much since I last took it.

Is it ironic that I would stand as one of the most to benefit from a socialist or communist system of government and still I would rather yet opt for only that which I may come to earn, as..an individual, with..nil to minimal earnings to generally speak of? Thats pretty fucking neat tbh, bc I boast mostly void and sometimes paroxysm, chop all of my action but mostly power, and as such at the end of the..... NEET, I’m pretty much a fucking neet. That, yeah that sucks. I was going to intern at nasa but I called one of the heads of advisory a cocksucker on Twitter for recommending I act like a lady and have a little tact, ‘you’re representing the whole of outer space when you put on that uniform,’ I told him to eat my shorts and he rescinded my internship; I promptly implored him, ‘don’t have a cow, man,’ but it was already too late - I was never going to drive a Tesla.
 
I don't like the communist test it has too many question that have answers that change depending on the circumstances around them.
i rank at 63% somewhat communist but I think this is because my goal is fully automated luxury space communism so asking me about who should be in control of loans and tax has me asking why the fuck are we still using money?

I'm a little surprised that I scored that high on cultural and eco feminism. Possibly because rather than disagree I took a more "not going to touch that one" approach.

Conservatism/Non-Feminism
Conservatives (or Non-Feminists) are generally supportive of traditional gender roles, seeing men as naturally dominant and fit for public roles while women should complement and support their men in private. They often justify these beliefs by reference to biological or religious arguments, arguing either that traditional gender roles evolved in nature or were ordained by a Supreme Being. Some may also argue that feminism is unfair to women since it encourages them to go against their nature.
Liberal Feminism
Liberal Feminists believe that women and men have equal capacities and that they should have the same civil rights and opportunities. They advocate that equal treatment must be enshrined in the law and that politics should be restricted to the public sphere; reserving the rights of the individual to a private life not touched by government or politics.
Radical Feminism
Radical Feminists see the oppression of women as the oldest and most widespread type of domination, and therefore as the model for all subsequent modes of oppression (such as racism, class oppression, bigotry, and so on). Radical Feminists see men as the fundamental factor in the oppression of women (as opposed to capitalism, custom, or biology).
Socialist Feminism
Socialist Feminists hold that gender inequality cannot be separated from the inequalities caused by class oppression and capitalism. These inequalities are inseparable from each other and thus reinforce and feed on each other, creating in turn new modes of oppression such as racism and bigotry. A socialist restructuring of society is thus necessary for true equality to be achieved.
Cultural Feminism
Cultural Feminists believe that there is a "female essence" centered around values such as peace, nurture, and caring. They contrast this with a male essence centered around aggressiveness and competition, which they believe is destructive to both men and women. Consequently, both men and women would stand to gain from reorganizing society among more feminine, caring lines, allowing the nature and values of women to come to the fore.
Women of Color Feminism
Women of Color Feminists hold that racism and sexism combine to form a mode of double oppression for women of color that white feminists could never understand. Women of Color Feminists are often critical of white feminists, which they see as too focused on their own problems, while ignoring the issues of poverty, racism, and ethnocentrism that women of color face.
Lesbian Feminism
Lesbian Feminism sees heterosexuality as intertwined with male domination and challenges the perception of heterosexual love as normal. They see lesbian relationships as a way to free themselves from male oppression and sometimes advocate the segregation of women into all-female communes where they can rid themselves of patriarchal norms and values.
Ecofeminism
Ecofeminism sees humanity’s exploitation of the natural environment as a patriarchal, male mode of consciousness. Ecofeminists thus see a connection between the degradation of the natural environment and the subordination of women by men. They place an emphasis on the identity of the woman linked to Mother Earth with many believing that only women (or feminine values) can show us a geunine alternative to the ecologically and socially destructive system we are living in.
Intersectional Feminism
Intersectional Feminists believe that each person is characterized by their unique placement in an overlapping system of social identities that renders them prone to oppression or privilege. Not just male privilege, but privilege based on age, race, wealth, beauty, and health are thus legitimate points of concern for Intersectional Feminists. Anytime someone is rendered invisible or powerless due to their social identities, they should be listened to and understood with the aim of ending their oppression.
Postmodern Feminism
Postmodern Feminism challenges the legitimacy of supposedly objective knowledge (such as biology, brain science, and personality differences). They believe that such so-called “universal truths” are not value-free, but in fact manufactured to justify patriarchal norms in society. Postmodern Feminism thus contests classical thinking by highlighting that there are many domains of experience that are not captured by the prevailing, “scientific” mode of thought.
 
Not bad for a borderline "boomer" who was accused of being "gammon" a week or two ago...
