Blood type is Japanese Culture?

[JayLee]

I've been interested in Japanese culture lately and I've found something interesting about how they view blood type and how it's supposed to reflect on your own personality. Can anyone tell me which each blood type represents?

type A: neat pearson. sometimes too strict so other people around A might think it's annoying.
type B: go their own way. sometimes too freedom so other people around B think they cannot follow B's way.
type O: cheerful and friendly. sometimes too friendly that people around O think he/she is "everybody's friend"
type AB: kind similar to B, but more mysterious. sometimes shows A side, other time shows B side so people around AB think he/she is mysterious that they don't quite get him/her thoughts. Blood type of AB is also considered the most "mathematical" person.


something like that. I am type A and I still think some of the aspects get my personality right. doesn't make a lot of sense to foreigners, i think. lol


To another answerer:
I didn't say foreigners "do not understand", I meant that "personality is qualified by the blody type" theory doesn't make sense to them. A superstition? so why books about blood type is the best seller in Japan? Is that because Japanese LOVE superstition? I don't think so. or you don't know those books? you ever seen Japanese saying "what's your blood type?" "Mine is blah blah blah"? You seem not to know a lot of us yet IMO. sorry.

Just saying, but I think a lot of japanese lie and say their blood type is AB. I realize AB is more common there, but probably not nearly as common as represented by the people that told me they were.

Mana? Foreigners do not get it? What is so strange about it? It is just like any other superstition, astrology, chinese zodiacs, etc. Yes, i did call it a superstition, either way, the concept is not difficult in the slightest.
